We report here the isolation and complete genome sequencing of a large double-stranded DNA virus, Powai Lake megavirus, for the first time from India. The isolation of a large DNA virus with genome size >1 Mb from India further attests to the prevalence of Giant viruses in different environmental niches.
我们首次在此报告从印度分离出一种大型双链DNA病毒——Powai湖巨型病毒,并完成了其全基因组测序。从印度分离出一种基因组大小大于1 Mb的大型DNA病毒,进一步证明了巨型病毒在不同环境生态位中的广泛存在。
