Database curation study uncovers taxonomic links between viruses and cellular hosts, highlighting interaction networks in environmental genomics.

Key Points

To develop a comprehensive, manually curated reference database connecting viral genomes to their cellular host taxonomy for environmental genomics and interaction network studies.
Mined existing scientific literature and public databases to extract documented virus-host relationships.
Manually curated and cross-referenced taxonomic linkages between viral genomes and cellular host organisms.
Generated a centralized, curated database linking viral genomic sequences to cellular host taxonomy.
Resolved a critical gap in reference databases required for analyzing organism interaction networks and viral symbiosis.
