  abstract = {{A}moeba-infecting giant viruses are recently discovered viruses that have been isolated from diverse environments all around the world. {I}n parallel to isolation efforts, metagenomics confirmed their worldwide distribution from a broad range of environmental and host-associated samples, including humans, depicting them as a major component of eukaryotic viruses in nature and a possible resident of the human/animal virome whose role is still unclear. {N}evertheless, metagenomics data about amoeba-infecting giant viruses still remain scarce, mainly because of methodological limitations. {E}fforts should be pursued both at the metagenomic sample preparation level and on in silico analyses to better understand their roles in the environment and in human/animal health and disease.},
