Serpecor1 and Hardycor2 are tailed viruses infecting the haloarchaeon Halorubrum coriense, and were recovered from widely separated hypersaline lakes in Australia way back in the late 1990s. They are similar to HF1 and add to an expanding group of viruses within a newly proposed genus Haloferacalesvirus. Read all about them in Genes at https://www.mdpi.com/2073-4425/11/4/405
Our microarray study of the transcription of the gammapleolipovirus His2 and its host Har. hispanica has just been published in MicrobiologyOpen. The direct link to it is https://doi.org/10.1002/mbo3.1016. Viral gene expression occurred in three main phases (early, middle, and late), and by 4.5 hr p.i. the majority of genes were actively transcribed. Eighty host genes were differentially regulated ≥twofold post-infection.
