Most of the classified biomes are identified by the dominant plants found in their communities. For example, grasslands are dominated by a variety of annual andperennial species of grass, while deserts are occupied by plant species that require very little water for survival or by plants that ...
Originally, the discovery of most viruses depended primarily on the observation of their effect on a host. Nowadays, (meta)genomics has become a major method for virus discovery. Despite the fact that there is no universal marker gene carried by all viruses, studies of specific hallmark genes h...

Indeed, it must be noted that the rainfall in the Amazon basin is primarily convective, characterized by high intensity, brief duration, and limited spatial distribution [70]. As a result, the average rainfall recorded by surface pluviometric stations could be skewed, especially in the considered...
