Virome of the Sea-Rock Pool Mosquito Aedes Mariae and Its Breeding Water

Metaviromic data from the sea-rock pool mosquito Aedes mariae and its breeding habitat water, providing the first characterization of its virome. The dataset was authored by Pamela Mancini and last updated on May 19, 2026. It is available under a CC-BY-4.0 license and has a total size of 8.9 GB.

Use Cases

• Characterize mosquito-associated viruses based on metaviromic sequencing data.
• Study the role of breeding-site water in virome acquisition as described in the study.
• Compare viral communities between the Aedes mariae mosquito and its aquatic habitat.

Strengths

• Dataset size is 8.9 GB, indicating a substantial volume of sequence data.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for open reuse.
• Represents the first virome characterization for the Aedes mariae species.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
