Marine oomycetes of the genus Halophytophthora harbour viruses related to bunyaviruses
We investigated the incidence of RNA viruses in a collection of Halophytophthora spp. from estuarine ecosystems in southern Portugal. A total of eight putative novel virus species with genomic affinities to members of the Order Bunyavirales were detected and their full-length genome characterised by RACE.
