Fig. 2: Characterization of the mammal-associated virome of bats.

From: Individual bat virome analysis reveals co-infection and spillover among bats and virus zoonotic potential

Fig. 2

The heatmap displays the distribution and abundance of mammal-associated viruses in individual bats. Each column represents an individual bat, while each row represents a virus species. The abundance of viruses in each individual is represented as a logarithm of the number of mapped reads per million total reads (RPM). Sampling site, host taxonomy (species and genus) and virus taxonomy are shown as colored strips at top and left, respectively. Red triangle marks indicate “viruses of concern”, defined as those that are closely related to known human or livestock pathogens (>90% amino acid similarity in RNA-dependent RNA polymerase). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
