| Abstract |
Members of the family Iridoviridae are animal viruses that infect only invertebrates and poikilothermic vertebrates. The invertebrate iridoviruses 22 (IIV22) and 25 (IIV25) were originally isolated from a single sample of blackfly larva (Simulium spp., order Diptera) collected from the Ystwyth river near Aberystwyth, Wales. Recently, the genomes of IIV22 (197.7 kbp) and IIV25 (204.8 kbp) were sequenced and reported. Here, we describe the complete genome sequence of IIV22A, a variant that was isolated from the same pool of virions collected from the blackfly larva from which the IIV22 virion genome originated. The IIV22A genome, 196.5 kbp, is smaller than IIV22. Nevertheless, it contains 7 supplementary putative ORFs. Its analysis enables evaluation of the degree of genomic polymorphisms within an IIV isolate. Despite the occurrence of this IIV variant with IIV22 and IIV25 in a single blackfly larva and the features of their DNA polymerase, we found no evidence of lateral genetic transfers between the genomes of these two IIV species. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 21 April 2014.
All research outputs
#20,656,161
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Environmental Microbiome
#579
of 786 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#177,908
of 242,887 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Environmental Microbiome
#34
of 49 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 786 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.8. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 242,887 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 49 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
