title: Recovering new viruses from New Mexico soils

description: Here, we utilized shotgun metagenomic sequencing to assemble the genomes
 of viruses from high-elevation soils in New Mexico. This dataset
 represents 12 viromes (size-filtered at 0.22 µm) and 11
 metagenomes (non-size-filtered). Each file represents one metagenome or
 one virome. The sequences in each file are medium or high-quality viruses
 as assessed by checkV.

 Description of the data and file structure This data represents medium and
 high-quality viruses (assessed by checkV) from soil samples collected at
 high elevation in New Mexico. Files represent 11 metagenomes and 12
 size-filtered viromes. Each file contains the medium and high-quality
 viruses assembled from that sample. ### Files and variables #### File:
