🚨NEW paper: Benchmarking Hi-C for virus–host inference
journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...

A clear baseline for anyone mapping virus–host interactions that establishes robust, benchmarked thresholds for Hi-C linkages.

Key results: 👇
Benchmarking with synthetic communities provides a baseline for virus-host inferences from Hi-C proximity linking
Virus discovery has accelerated but linking viruses to hosts remains challenging. This study uses synthetic microbiomes to optimize and benchmark Hi-C for virus-host linkage inference, and applies thi...
