This paper compares four assays for measuring anti-EBOV glycoprotein antibodies, finding they are concordant and that newer assays offer lower variability and higher throughput.

The paper introduces iSKIM, a method to detect intrahost mutations in SARS-CoV-2 raw sequencing data, revealing early emergence of mutations associated with variants of concern.

This study analyzes recombination events in human coronaviruses, finding evidence of recombination in SARS-CoV-2 and other coronaviruses, with implications for immune evasion and genomic surveillance.

The paper identifies intra-host single nucleotide variants (iSNVs) in influenza samples to track transmission links, finding that technical and systematic errors affect iSNV calling and that self-reference reduces noise.

This study analyzes over 7,000 SARS-CoV-2 datasets to reveal genomic diversity, showing iSNVs and small indels drive variation, and highlights implications for qRT-PCR and transmission tracking.

The paper identifies Japanese Encephalitis Virus genotype V and other arboviruses in mosquitoes from Camp Humphreys using metagenomic analysis, showing the virus is circulating in South Korea.

This paper describes a method for rapid whole genome sequencing of SARS-CoV-2 using one-step RT-PCR on a microfluidic platform followed by MiSeq amplicon sequencing.

The paper analyzes DENV-2 virus evolution in Kenya and East Africa, finding that the 2017 outbreak strain had circulated for years and showed unique selection pressures and potential immunogenic sites.

This study identifies a CHIKV strain with mutations enhancing its fitness in Aedes aegypti, which has driven recent outbreaks in Africa and Asia.
