TL;DR
Scientists discovered two new anellovirus genomes in swabs from crowned lemurs and aye-ayes at the Duke Lemur Center.
Contribution
The study identifies two new anellovirus species in lemur swabs, expanding the known lemur-associated anellovirus lineage.
Findings
Two complete circular anellovirus genomes were identified from lemur swabs.
The viruses belong to the Anelloviridae family and represent two distinct species.
The findings expand the known lineage of anelloviruses associated with lemurs.
Abstract
Two circular, complete genomes of anelloviruses were identified from a crowned lemur anal swab and an aye-aye skin swab from individuals at the Duke Lemur Center (Durham, NC, USA). The anelloviruses represent two species in the Anelloviridae family and expand a developing lemur-associated anellovirus lineage.
