iVirus 2.0 significantly expands functionality and accessibility by integrating core iVirus apps into the Department of Energy's Systems Biology KnowledgeBase, upgrading or adding 20 software tools at CyVerse, aggregating nearly 20-fold more sequence reads, and updating documentation for maximizing user interaction and contribution to infrastructure development.
Microbes drive myriad ecosystem processes, but under strong influence from viruses. Because studying viruses in complex systems requires different tools than those for microbes, they remain underexplored. To combat this, we previously aggregated double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) virus analysis capabilities and resources into 'iVirus' on the CyVerse collaborative cyberinfrastructure. Here we substantially expand iVirus's functionality and accessibility, to iVirus 2.0, as follows. First, core iVirus apps were integrated into the Department of Energy's Systems Biology KnowledgeBase (KBase) to provide an additional analytical platform. Second, at CyVerse, 20 software tools (apps) were upgraded or added as new tools and capabilities. Third, nearly 20-fold more sequence reads were aggregated to capture new data and environments. Finally, documentation, as live protocols, was updated to maximize user interaction with and contribution to infrastructure development. Together, iVirus 2.0 serves as a uniquely central and accessible analytical platform for studying how viruses, particularly dsDNA viruses, impact diverse microbial ecosystems.
