Viromes of Freshwater Fish with Lacustrine and Diadromous Life Histories Differ in Composition.

Viruses that infect fish are understudied, yet they provide important evolutionary context to the viruses that infect terrestrial vertebrates. We surveyed gill tissue meta-transcriptomes collected from two species of native freshwater fish from Aotearoa New Zealand- and . A total of 64 fish were used for gill tissue meta-transcriptomic sequencing, from populations with contrasting life histories-landlocked (i.
