Abstract

Efforts to catalog viral diversity in the gut microbiome have largely focused on DNA viruses, while RNA viruses remain understudied. To address this, we screened assemblies of previously published mouse gut metatranscriptomes for the presence of RNA viruses. We identified the coding-complete genomes of an astrovirus and five mitovirus-like viruses.
