The number of genes encoding repeat domain-containing proteins positively correlates with genome size in amoebal giant viruses

Curiously, in viruses, the virion volume appears to be predominantly driven by genome length rather than the number of proteins it encodes or geometric constraints. With their large genome and giant particle size, amoebal viruses (AVs) are ideally suited to study the relationship between genome and...
