2.4 Mb Genome Size for World's Biggest Virus
By Jitendra Narayan 4123 days ago
The genome size of new discovered Pandoraviruses have roughly twice the size of the record-holding Megavirus genomic code. Interestingly only 6 percent of its genes resembled the genes other organisms. It is assume that it may come from a different origin.
