A Virus transmission across our rodent data (species, genera, and families) and a tripartite network were constructed to visualize the associations among the known viruses identified in this study, rodent species, and their potential hosts using our rodent data in conjunction with virus records from the NCBI database. For known viruses, the host range was determined based on host species information retrieved from NCBI and expanded with newly identified hosts in this study. For novel viruses, the host range was established solely based on host species information obtained in this study. The red color represents the novel viruses identified in this study. B A Venn diagram illustrates the viruses shared among rodents for known viruses. C A Venn diagram illustrates the viruses shared among rodents for novel viruses. D The host-virus correlation network is presented, where node shapes denote rodent and virus species, and node colors represent rodent families. Rodent species located at center positions within the network are labeled in red.
