TL;DR: It is found that ZIKV circulated undetected in multiple regions for many months before the first locally transmitted cases were confirmed, highlighting the importance of surveillance of viral infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Capturing sequence diversity in metagenomes with comprehensive and scalable probe design.

TL;DR: This work designs optimal probe sets, with a specified number of oligonucleotides, that achieve full coverage of, and scale well with, known sequence diversity, and applies them to capture viral genomes in complex metagenomic samples.
