Prokaryotic virus host predictor: a Gaussian model for host prediction of prokaryotic viruses in metagenomics

Prokaryotic virus host predictor: a Gaussian model for host prediction of prokaryotic viruses in metagenomics

Abstract Background Viruses are ubiquitous biological entities, estimated to be the largest reservoirs of unexplored genetic diversity on Earth. Full functional characterization and annotation of newly discovered viruses requires tools to enable taxonomic assignment, the range of hosts, and biologic...
