Metagenomic analysis demonstrates the diversity of the fecal virome in asymptomatic pigs in East Africa
Pigs harbor a variety of viruses that are closely related to human viruses and are suspected to have zoonotic potential. Little is known about the presence of viruses in smallholder farms where pigs are in close contact with humans and wildlife. This study provides insight into viral communities and...
