Abstract

Screening for viruses in samples taken from acidic hot springs of Kamchatka (Russia) revealed a collection of morphotypes, including linear, spherical and complex fusiform shapes, which show partial similarity to those found in acidic geothermal environments in other geographical locations. One of the viruses, Acidianus filamentous virus 9, AFV9, was isolated and its structure and genome were studied in detail.

摘要

对从俄罗斯堪察加半岛酸性温泉采集的样本进行病毒筛查，发现了一系列形态类型，包括线性、球形和复杂的梭形，这些形态类型与在其他地理位置的酸性地热环境中发现的形态类型有部分相似之处。其中一种病毒，嗜酸热硫化叶菌丝状病毒9（AFV9），被分离出来，并对其结构和基因组进行了详细研究。
