Abstract
Abundant bioinformatics resources are available for the study of complex microbial metagenomes, however their utility in viral metagenomics is limited. HoloVir is a robust and flexible data analysis pipeline that provides an optimized and validated workflow for taxonomic and functional characterization of viral metagenomes derived from invertebrate holobionts. Simulated viral metagenomes comprising varying levels of viral diversity and abundance were used to determine the optimal assembly and gene prediction strategy, and multiple sequence assembly methods and gene prediction tools were tested in order to optimize our analysis workflow. HoloVir performs pairwise comparisons of single read and predicted gene datasets against the viral RefSeq database to assign taxonomy and additional comparison to phage-specific and cellular markers is undertaken to support the taxonomic assignments and identify potential cellular contamination. Broad functional classification of the predicted genes is provided by assignment of COG microbial functional category classifications using EggNOG and higher resolution functional analysis is achieved by searching for enrichment of specific Swiss-Prot keywords within the viral metagenome. Application of HoloVir to viral metagenomes from the coral

<abstract><p>Abundant bioinformatics resources are available for the study of complex microbial metagenomes, however their utility in viral metagenomics is limited. HoloVir is a robust and flexible data analysis pipeline that provides an optimized and validated workflow for taxonomic and functional characterization of viral metagenomes derived from invertebrate holobionts. Simulated viral metagenomes comprising varying levels of viral diversity and abundance were used to determine the optimal assembly and gene prediction strategy, and multiple sequence assembly methods and gene prediction tools were tested in order to optimize our analysis workflow. HoloVir performs pairwise comparisons of single read and predicted gene datasets against the viral RefSeq database to assign taxonomy and additional comparison to phage-specific and cellular markers is undertaken to support the taxonomic assignments and identify potential cellular contamination. Broad functional classification of the predicted genes is provided by assignment of COG microbial functional category classifications using EggNOG and higher resolution functional analysis is achieved by searching for enrichment of specific Swiss-Prot keywords within the viral metagenome. Application of HoloVir to viral metagenomes from the coral <italic>Pocillopora damicornis</italic>
and the sponge <italic>Rhopaloeides odorabile</italic>
demonstrated that HoloVir provides a valuable tool to characterize holobiont viral communities across species, environments, or experiments.</p>

<p>Marine viruses are the most abundant biological entities in the oceans, often exceeding the number of bacteria 10-fold (Wommack and Colwell, <xref rid="B81" ref-type="bibr">2000</xref>
; Suttle, <xref rid="B67" ref-type="bibr">2005</xref>
, <xref rid="B68" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
) and having high local and global diversity (Brum et al., <xref rid="B9" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). Viruses infect all living bacterial, archaeal and eukaryotic cells (Fuhrman, <xref rid="B20" ref-type="bibr">1999</xref>
; Wommack and Colwell, <xref rid="B81" ref-type="bibr">2000</xref>
; Danovaro et al., <xref rid="B14" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
; Rohwer and Thurber, <xref rid="B58" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
) and are responsible for high turnover rates of their microbial hosts and subsequent nutrient cycling in the world's oceans (Weitz and Wilhelm, <xref rid="B74" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
). However, viruses are not exclusively agents of mortality, and in some cases, they can form mutually beneficial partnerships with their hosts (Weinbauer and Rassoulzadegan, <xref rid="B73" ref-type="bibr">2004</xref>
). For instance, viruses can contribute to host survival by suspending unnecessary metabolic activities during unfavorable environmental conditions, while they modulate host metabolic gene expression (Paul, <xref rid="B50" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
) and confer host fitness (Roossinck, <xref rid="B59" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
).</p>
<p>Due to limitations in traditional methodologies used for studying complex viral populations, including a lack of suitable marker genes, and limited methods designed specifically for viruses, our understanding about the specific roles viruses play in marine ecosystems has lagged behind our knowledge of the functional roles of cellular microorganisms. However, despite these limitations, research over the past decade has shown that viruses play a vital role in biogeochemical cycles as they modulate microbially-driven processes through mortality and subsequent release of organic matter and inorganic nutrients that become available for other microorganisms to consume (Suttle, <xref rid="B67" ref-type="bibr">2005</xref>
; Weitz and Wilhelm, <xref rid="B74" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
). This viral-induced mortality can be selective, thereby determining host community composition and acting as an important bottom-up ecological driver in marine ecosystems (Bouvier and del Giorgio, <xref rid="B6" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
; Hewson and Fuhrman, <xref rid="B26" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
). Horizontal gene transfer and metabolic reprogramming by viral-encoded auxiliary metabolic genes is another important ecosystem role (Jiang and Paul, <xref rid="B33" ref-type="bibr">1998</xref>
; Hurwitz et al., <xref rid="B30" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
) with the recombination of viral and host genes during infection often triggering changes in host metabolism, immunity, distribution and evolution (Rohwer and Thurber, <xref rid="B58" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
) as well as shaping viral genomes (Lindell et al., <xref rid="B39" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
).</p>
<p>To date, most of the research exploring interactions between viruses and eukaryotes within the marine environment has focused on causative agents of disease in commercially important taxa (reviewed in Suttle, <xref rid="B68" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
). However, as our understanding of the critical importance of the holobiont (host and the associated microbiome; Rohwer et al., <xref rid="B57" ref-type="bibr">2002</xref>
) has matured, research has begun to concentrate on viral associations in other marine species including reef invertebrates such as anemones, scleractinian corals and their algal endosymbionts (Wilson and Chapman, <xref rid="B77" ref-type="bibr">2001</xref>
; Wilson et al., <xref rid="B79" ref-type="bibr">2001</xref>
, <xref rid="B78" ref-type="bibr">2005</xref>
; Marhaver et al., <xref rid="B41" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
; Vega Thurber et al., <xref rid="B72" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
; Correa et al., <xref rid="B13" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
; Hewson et al., <xref rid="B25" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
; Pollock et al., <xref rid="B52" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
; Soffer et al., <xref rid="B63" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). Advances in metagenomic sequencing have greatly improved our ability to explore viral communities associated with marine invertebrates (Marhaver et al., <xref rid="B41" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
; Wilson, <xref rid="B76" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
; Soffer et al., <xref rid="B63" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
; Weynberg et al., <xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
); however, understanding the biodiversity and functional roles of viruses in a holobiont ecosystem context is still extremely challenging.</p>
<p>Tools to analyse complex metagenomes have primarily been developed for microbial (cellular) data sets, as these have well established and curated databases and are not affected by some of the methodological limitations that pertain to viruses. For example, the preparation of viral nucleic acid for whole genome sequencing requires an amplification step prior to sequencing, which can limit our ability to quantify viral biodiversity, and potentially limits our capacity to use coverage information in metagenome binning strategies (Albertsen et al., <xref rid="B2" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
; Smits et al., <xref rid="B62" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). Although there is some evidence for quantifiable amplification of viral metagenomes, the focus has been solely on double stranded DNA (dsDNA) viruses, particularly the bacteriophage (viruses that infect bacteria) which are known to dominate pelagic marine ecosystems (Duhaime and Sullivan, <xref rid="B18" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
; Solonenko and Sullivan, <xref rid="B64" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
; Brum and Sullivan, <xref rid="B10" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). Holobiont viral communities however, are much more complex and contain a diverse array of dsDNA/single stranded DNA (ssDNA) bacteriophage as well as a range of viruses that infect eukaryotes (Marhaver et al., <xref rid="B41" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
; Vega Thurber et al., <xref rid="B72" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
; Hewson et al., <xref rid="B24" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
; Correa et al., <xref rid="B13" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
; Weynberg et al., <xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
; Wood-Charlson et al., <xref rid="B82" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). Many of the pioneering marine invertebrate metavirome studies suffered from limitations in sample preparation and virome bioinformatics that restricted the biological interpretation of the sequence datasets (reviewed in Wood-Charlson et al., <xref rid="B82" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). Whilst recent methodological improvements for purifying, extracting, and sequencing DNA and RNA viromes have enhanced our ability to capture greater viral diversity from marine samples (Weynberg et al., <xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
), the metagenomic exploration of invertebrate-associated viral assemblages is a relatively new field and the majority of viral sequences still have no identifiable homologs in sequence databases.</p>
<p>To accelerate progress in the field of holobiont viromics, we require a customized bioinformatic analysis workflow that determines both the composition and putative function of viruses associated with ecologically important marine species. Importantly, analyses should be performed at both read and contig levels, as previous simulation studies have indicated that sequence assembly of viromes can be incomplete and is limited by chimeric contigs that can occur at all taxonomic levels (Vázquez-Castellanos et al., <xref rid="B71" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
; Smits et al., <xref rid="B62" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
).</p>
<p>Several existing bioinformatic platforms, such as Integrated Microbial Genomes (IMG) (Markowitz et al., <xref rid="B42" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
), Metagenomics-Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology (MG-RAST) (Meyer et al., <xref rid="B45" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
), Cyberinfrastructure for Advanced Microbial Ecology Research and Analysis (CAMERA) (Sun et al., <xref rid="B66" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
), and iPlant (Goff et al., <xref rid="B22" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
), provide metagenomic sequence analysis tools; however, each has limitations that restrict their applicability for invertebrate-associated viral metagenomes. For example, IMG/M, the analysis portal for the Joint Genome Institute, Department of Energy, USA, does not currently accept external sequencing projects; MG-RAST relies on curated bacterial-focused databases that are inappropriate for viruses and CAMERA was discontinued in 2014. Since then, CAMERA's sequence data has been transferred to the iMicrobe portal (http://imicrobe.us/, supported by iPlant) and although iMicrobe, and its cousin iVirus (still under development), are likely to be valuable resources, they are not currently funded to accommodate the petabytes of data being produced by the community.</p>
<p>Metavir, launched in 2011 as an online tool for analysing and visualizing viral taxonomic diversity (Roux et al., <xref rid="B60" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
), was a major advance for the analytical processing of viral metagenomic datasets. Whilst the initial release focused on single read analyses, the 2014 revision Metavir2 expanded the analysis to assembled viromes and also made significant improvements to enable comparative taxonomic analyses (Roux et al., <xref rid="B61" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). However, Metavir2 does not incorporate analysis of viral function and users have limited control over how their data is analyzed. The analysis pipeline and online resource Viral Informatics Resource for Metagenome Exploration (VIROME) was released in 2012 to enable taxonomic, functional and gene richness analyses of viral metagenomes (Wommack et al., <xref rid="B80" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
). However, the limitation to 250,000 reads has greatly restricted its functionality for large community sequence datasets and the detection of low abundant viruses. The computational framework Viral Metagenome Annotation Pipeline (VMGAP) was also developed in 2011 and enables functional analysis of viral metagenomes (Lorenzi et al., <xref rid="B40" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
). VMGAP facilitated functional annotation of viral metagenomic datasets by assigning function to open reading frames (ORFs) based on multiple pairwise similarity searches to databases including the non-redundant protein database, Protein Family (PFAM/TIGRFAM) protein domains, the classification of mobile genetic elements (ACLAME) database and environmental protein databases (Lorenzi et al., <xref rid="B40" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
). This tool can also identify protein domains, signal peptides and Enzyme Commission (EC) assignments before producing a detailed annotation of these results for each input ORF. While VMGAP is undoubtedly a robust methodological framework for annotating viral ORFs, it is designed to annotate individual viral sequences and implements sequence similarity searches against 12 database resources, making it computationally expensive to perform, particularly when multiple viral metagenome samples are being compared.</p>
<p>In order to facilitate rapid in-house analysis of marine holobiont viral metagenome sequence data (using the methods in Weynberg et al., <xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
), we have developed and validated a flexible and robust script-based workflow that accepts overlapping paired-end Illumina data [after basic Quality Control (QC) and trimming]. It returns taxonomic annotation for single reads and assembled contigs, as well as gene prediction and functional analysis. HoloVir has been designed for the analysis of DNA viral metagenomics, and its protocols would need to be modified in order to analyse RNA viral metagenomics datasets. The application of HoloVir is demonstrated for two marine invertebrate-associated viral metagenome communities.</p>

<sec><title>Simulated viral metagenomes</title>
<p>To determine the optimal assembly algorithm for viral metagenomes from holobiont samples and evaluate whether nested assembly improves genome reconstruction, two mock viromes were simulated from known viral genomes using art_illumina (Huang et al., <xref rid="B28" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
) with the following parameters: -p –l 250 –m 450 –s 10. The first simulated dataset contained 5 taxonomically distinct viruses in varying abundance (Table <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S1</xref>
) and the second comprised 10 viruses including three closely related Cyanophage species (Table <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S1</xref>
). Each mock community contained three million 250 base pair (bp) overlapping paired end Illumina MiSeq reads, representing typical sequencing characteristics for holobiont viral metagenomes (Weynberg et al., <xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). Simulated metagenomics datasets and the original source genomic information is included in the github repository for Holovir (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://github.com/plaffy/HoloVir">https://github.com/plaffy/HoloVir</ext-link>
).</p>
<p>Simulated viral metagenomes were assembled using CLC Genomics Workbench 8.5.1 (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://www.qiagenbioinformatics.com/">https://www.qiagenbioinformatics.com/</ext-link>
), Ray Meta (Boisvert et al., <xref rid="B5" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
), IDBA-UD (Peng et al., <xref rid="B51" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
) and Trinity (Grabherr et al., <xref rid="B23" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
) to determine which software produced the most complete assembly, defined as the total proportion of source genomic composition that could be reconstructed. All assemblies were performed using default parameters and Ray Meta incorporated a kmer length of 31 unless otherwise stated. Failure to assemble Cyanophage PSS2 contigs within initial Ray Meta assemblies was resolved by repeating the assembly process incorporating a kmer length of 21. For all assemblies, a minimum contig size of 1000 bp was used in order to increase assembly reliability (Mende et al., <xref rid="B43" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
). Assembled contigs were aligned to their corresponding reference genomes using the MUMmer bioinformatics software suite (Kurtz et al., <xref rid="B36" ref-type="bibr">2004</xref>
). The comparison script run_mummer3 compares contigs to genomes and was used to determine which assembly algorithm produced the highest coverage of the original genomes.</p>
<p>In order to identify the optimal software tool for gene prediction in viral metagenome datasets, gene prediction was performed on both simulated datasets using four different metagenomic gene prediction software tools; FragGeneScan (Rho et al., <xref rid="B56" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>
), MetaGeneAnnotator (Noguchi et al., <xref rid="B49" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
), Orphelia (Hoff et al., <xref rid="B27" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
) and MetaGeneMark (Zhu et al., <xref rid="B85" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>
). The original CDS annotations of each genome within the simulated datasets were used to determine the performance and accuracy of each gene prediction method. The total number of predicted genes which were identical or overlapped genomic CDS annotations was determined, as well as the number of annotated genes that are not identified in each gene prediction method, and these results were compared to each other in order to evaluate the performance of each gene prediction algorithm.</p>

<sec><title>Collection of marine invertebrates for viral metagenomics</title>
<p>To demonstrate the utility of HoloVir in typical marine holobionts, samples from two different invertebrate phyla were processed. Viral extracts were prepared from the Scleractinian coral <italic>Pocillopora damicornis</italic>
and the marine Demosponge <italic>Rhopaloeides odorabile</italic>
. <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
(<italic>n</italic>
= 3) were sampled at Trunk Reef (18°20.49′S, 146°49.46′E) in November 2012 and processed as described in Weynberg et al. (<xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). Briefly, coral tissue was blasted from the skeleton using an air-gun into 15 ml 0.02 μm filtered (Anotop, Whatman) SM buffer (100 mM NaCl, 8 mM MgSO4.50 mM Tris pH 7.5) in a zip- lock bag. <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
(<italic>n</italic>
= 3) were collected from Davies Reef (18°50.558′S, 147°37.618′E) in January 2014 and samples were processed by excising 5 cm<sup>3</sup>
pieces of tissue incorporating both pinacoderm and mesohyl layers as described previously (Burja et al., <xref rid="B11" ref-type="bibr">1998</xref>
).</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Sample homogenization and cellular disruption</title>
<p>Samples of <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
were homogenized and membranes disrupted as previously described (Weynberg et al., <xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). Briefly, blastate from all biological replicates was pooled prior to homogenization at 10,000 rpm for 1 min and centrifugation at 400 g for 5 min. To disrupt the cells, beating with 425–600 μm diameter acid-washed glass beads was performed on the homogenates at 5000 rpm for 5 min. Samples were centrifuged at 14,000 rpm for 1 min before the supernatant was collected for viral fractionation, snap frozen and stored at −80°C until required. Samples of <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
were firstly cut into small pieces using the Tupperware Turbo Chef then homogenized in SM buffer for 10 min or until separation of the tissue and skeleton became evident. <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
samples were filtered through a 100 μm sieve (Corning Life Sciences), centrifuged at 500 g for 15 min and the supernatant recovered for further processing.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Cesium chloride fractionation of cellular isolates</title>
<p>In order to fractionate cellular isolates to capture viruses and virus like particles, physical separation using cesium chloride (CsCl) density gradient centrifugation was performed as previously described (Weynberg et al., <xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). The density of resulting fractions was determined gravimetrically and DNA concentrations of each fraction were measured using a Quant-It Picogreen dsDNA high sensitivity assay kit (Invitrogen, Live Technologies). Fractions containing nucleic acids were pooled together prior to buffer exchange (to remove CsCl salts) using Amicon centrifugal spin columns (30 kDa, Millipore) and 0.02 μm filtered SM buffer. The viscosity of the sponge samples necessitated 0.2 μm filtering prior to buffer exchange. All samples were then filtered using 0.2 μm pore size Durapore® (low protein binding) syringe filters to remove any remaining contamination.</p>

<p>All samples were treated with DNase (Epicentre) and RNase (MoBio) for 30 min at 37°C prior to nucleic acid extraction. RNase treatment and DNA extraction of the viral extract from <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
was performed using a MasterPure kit (Epicentre, Illumina) following manufacturer's instructions. Nuclease treatment and DNA extraction of the viral extract from <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
was performed using the FastDNA™ SPIN Kit for Soil (MP Biomedicals) following the manufacturer's instructions.</p>
<p>In order to reduce amplification bias encountered with standard Multi-displacement amplification techniques, all DNA samples were amplified using a modified Random Priming-mediated Sequence-Independent Single-Primer Amplification (SISPA) approach as per Weynberg et al. (<xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). Final amplified PCR products were cleaned using a MinElute® PCR purification kit. Samples were checked for quantification using a Quant-iT PicoGreen® kit on a NanoDrop 3300 fluorospectrometer, for quality (260:280 ratios), and were visualized on a 0.8% agarose gel to confirm that a size range appropriate for sequencing (~250–500 bp) was present without contamination of smaller fragments. All viral metagenomes were sequenced using Nextera XT MiSeq 300 bp paired-end sequencing (Illumina) at the Ramaciotti Centre, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia. The datasets generated from the <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
and <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
samples were submitted to Genbank Sequence Read archive and are available under the accession numbers <ext-link ext-link-type="DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank" xlink:href="SRX503392">SRX503392</ext-link>

<sec><title>Sequence analysis of holobiont viral metagenomes</title>
<p>A two-tiered computational approach based on HoloVir was undertaken on each dataset comprising (i) a QC trimmed single read analysis to determine the taxonomic composition of viruses and (ii) a metagenome sequence assembly followed by gene prediction, taxonomic analysis and functional categorization. Single read and assembled data were directly compared to assess whether the assembly protocol was sufficiently robust to identify both abundant and rare viral taxa and determine the overall functional profile of these metaviromes.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Single read analysis: QC trimming and paired end merging</title>
<p>Raw sequence reads were processed in CLC Genomics Workbench 8.5.1 (CLC Bio, Aarhus, Denmark), adaptor sequences were trimmed and reads were filtered to ensure an average PHRED score of 20 and a minimum sequence size of 100 bp. Paired reads were merged in CLC Genomics Workbench and a final data set containing merged pairs, and unmerged orphan sequences was combined, before a final sequence minimal length cutoff of 200 bp was applied. In order to reduce the computational costs, samples were dereplicated using CD-HIT (Fu et al., <xref rid="B19" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
) with a sequence identity threshold of 99%. The dereplicated output was used for all subsequent sequence similarity searches in the read-centric analysis.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Sequence similarity comparisons of single read viral metagenomes</title>
<p>Comparison to the viral RefSeq database (Brister et al., <xref rid="B8" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
) is the most popular way to identify reads of potential viral origin (Lorenzi et al., <xref rid="B40" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
; Wommack et al., <xref rid="B80" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
; Roux et al., <xref rid="B61" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
), and also forms the basis for assigning metavirome composition within this computational workflow. BLAST sequence similarity searches to viral RefSeq were performed using default parameters (Altschul et al., <xref rid="B3" ref-type="bibr">1990</xref>
). However, without a detailed understanding of the level of cellular contamination in the holobiont metavirome datasets, it is difficult to determine how non-viral reads influence the formation of the inferred viral metagenomic community. A primary limiting factor in the analysis of viral metagenomes is the absence of a complete database of virus-specific marker genes. Whilst a reliable bacteriophage marker dataset exists (Kristensen et al., <xref rid="B35" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
), this does not currently incorporate eukaryotic viruses within the orthologous group associations, and is therefore unable to identify all potential viruses likely to be found within holobiont datasets.</p>
<p>Potential cellular contamination of the viral datasets was determined by performing a sequence similarity search (using BLAST with default parameters) to a cellular marker gene database containing sequences from two reference databases of phylogenetic markers, namely a ribosomal RNA database (SILVA, release 115) (Quast et al., <xref rid="B55" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
) and an in-house database of universally conserved proteins found in EggNOG 4.0 (Powell et al., <xref rid="B53" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
) (Clusters of Orthologous Groups that are encoded in at least 99% of all archaea, bacteria and eukaryote genomes). This cellular marker database was extended with bi-directional best hits from all RefSeq genomes that are not included in EggNOG 4.0. The database of cellular markers has been combined with the proteins from virus-specific phage orthologous groups (Kristensen et al., <xref rid="B35" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
). Taxonomic assignment was determined using MEGAN5 (Huson et al., <xref rid="B31" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
). MEGAN5 utilized a lowest common ancestor scoring system to assign taxonomy, maintaining a minimum bitscore threshold of 80, a top-percent parameter set at 80 and a minimum support parameter set at one read (cellular and phage marker database) and five reads (viral RefSeq database).</p>

<p><italic>De novo</italic>
assembly of viral metagenomes was performed using CLC Genomics Workbench 8.5.1, with a subsequent filtering step for a minimum of 3 × coverage and a minimum contig length of 1000 bp. Based on results from the mock community analysis, gene prediction was performed for all holobiont datasets using MetaGeneAnnotator. Predicted genes were screened using the same sequence similarity approach as described above for the single read analysis. Taxonomic assignment was performed using MEGAN5 as described above.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Functional analysis of viral metagenomes</title>
<p>The functional role of predicted genes from the viral assemblies was determined by performing a BLAST sequence similarity search of predicted genes against the UniprotKB/Swiss-Prot functionally annotated database (Suzek et al., <xref rid="B69" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
; Consortium, <xref rid="B12" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). An <italic>e</italic>
-value cutoff of 10<sup>−10</sup>
was applied, SwissProt keywords were identified for each best hit and collated for each viral metagenome and for the entire UniprotKB/Swiss-Prot database as a reference. In order to identify broad functional categories of predicted viral genes for each metagenome, predicted genes were also searched (using an <italic>e</italic>
-value cutoff of 10<sup>−10</sup>
) against the EggNOG 4.5 database (Huerta-Cepas et al., <xref rid="B29" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
), which includes 2605 protein orthologous groups from 352 viral genomes. The functional categories assigned to the COG of each best hit within EggNOG 4.5 for each predicted gene were counted to summarize broad protein functions (Galperin et al., <xref rid="B21" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
).</p>

<p>The Mock5 dataset contained five viral genomes, representing species that infect prokaryotic and eukaryotic hosts, with a combined metagenome size of 707,422 bp. The Mock10 dataset contained 10 viral genomes of phages and non-phages with a total genome size of 2,358,048 bp.

assembly in HoloVir</title>
<p>Assembly statistics (number of contigs, total number of bases in the assembly, N50 value, size of the longest contig and coverage of the original viral genomes) were collated for each of the assembly tools following analysis of the simulated datasets (Tables <xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
, <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S2</xref>
, and <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S3</xref>
). For the Mock5 dataset, CLC Genomics Workbench assembled the largest overall contig (179,062 bp), produced a combined contig size most closely reflecting the original metagenome size (689,270 bp) and covered 98% of the original genomes. While the largest contigs produced by Trinity and Ray Meta were comparable in length to CLC Genomics Workbench (177,419 and 179,062 bp respectively), Trinity assembled a total of 960,610 bp which is considerably larger than the original genome size and Ray Meta failed to assemble any contigs originating from the Podoviral Prochlorococcus phage P-SSP7, as well as covering only 76.7% of the original genomes. When the Ray Meta assembly was repeated using a kmer length of 21, the Podoviral Cyanophage PSS2 contigs were assembled. The IDBA-UD assembly produced numerous small contigs (< 1000 bp), a largest contig size of 97,990 bp and covered only 58.7% of the original genomes. Overall performance of the various assemblers was consistent between the Mock5 and Mock10 datasets, with CLC Genomics Workbench covering the highest proportion of the original Mock10 metagenome (96.7%), having the highest number of bases assembled (2,194,206 bp) and producing the largest contig size (733,564 bp).</p>

<p>When investigating the relative performance of each assembler tested in order to differentiate between closely related viruses, Ray Meta and CLC Genomics workbench were able to reconstruct 100% of the original genomes of Prochlorococcus phage P-SMM3 and Cyanophage P-RSM1, while Trinity assembled only 95.5 and 87% respectively. For Prochorococcus phage P-SMM4, which was less prevalent in the simulated community and shared 91% sequence identity to P-SMM3, Ray Meta, CLC Genomics Workbench and Trinity reconstructed 88.2, 78.7, and 57.1% of the original genome respectively. Based on these findings we can conclude that Ray Meta and CLC Genomics Workbench were suited to resolve strain variation in viral metagenomics datasets.</p>
<p>This comparative analysis of simulated viral metagenomes revealed that the commercially available <italic>de novo</italic>
assembler within CLC Genomics Workbench performed well for both simple and more complex viral metagenomes, and was hence incorporated into the HoloVir workflow. However, it is important to note that freely available assemblers could be easily substituted if required, allowing for continued flexibility of HoloVir as new assemblers and sequencing platforms are developed. Importantly, while Ray Meta performed well at assembling contigs from closely related viral species, it failed to assemble contigs from the Prochlorococcus phage P-SSP7 using the widely used kmer setting of 31. Although contigs of this virus were successfully assembled with <italic>k</italic>
= 21, the optimal kmer values for different biological datasets would be difficult to determine <italic>a priori</italic>
. Therefore, assemblies based on different kmer settings should be combined when using Ray Meta. The number of bases assembled into contigs using Trinity was considerably larger than the total size of the reference genomes for both simulated datasets (Table <xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
), indicating that Trinity tends to assemble multiple variants of contigs. This observation is not unexpected, as Trinity is primarily designed to assemble RNA-seq datasets and is optimized for detecting different splice variants of genes. While coverage remained high in Trinity assemblies (Table <xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
), the variation in sequences that Trinity is identifying is not present in the Mock5 community indicating that this assembler is overestimating overall community variation.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Binning of viral metagenomics datasets</title>
<p>Recent developments in metagenomic sequence binning have revolutionized the way microbial metagenomes are analyzed and greatly improved our ability to close microbial genomes (Brady and Salzberg, <xref rid="B7" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
; Imelfort et al., <xref rid="B32" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
; Laczny et al., <xref rid="B37" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). However, while the capacity to produce distinct viral sequence bins would undoubtedly improve interpretation of holobiont-derived viral metagenomes, a recent investigation into viral metagenome binning confirmed that coverage-based binning methodologies are not appropriate for amplified viral samples (Smits et al., <xref rid="B62" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). Tetranucleotide frequency binning has been used in several metagenomics analyses to identify discrete microbial bins (Swingley et al., <xref rid="B70" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
; Delmont et al., <xref rid="B16" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
; Moreira et al., <xref rid="B46" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
; Ngeow et al., <xref rid="B48" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). However, this method requires contigs of at least 5kb for reasonable accuracy (Dick et al., <xref rid="B17" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
). The majority of our assembled contigs from biological datasets are less than 5 kb in length, limiting the use of this binning strategy at this point in time. Future methodological advances such as the generation of longer sequence reads or the ability to sequence unamplified template are likely to enhance the utility of binning strategies in holobiont-derived viral metagenomes. Consequently, HoloVir does not as yet perform any binning of assembled contigs.</p>

<sec><title>Gene prediction within HoloVir</title>
<p>The genomes used to generate the Mock5 and Mock10 simulated datasets contained 875 and 2140 reference genes respectively. Gene prediction was performed on CLC Genomics Workbench assembled Mock5 and Mock10 contigs using the four candidate gene prediction tools. In Mock5 and Mock10 simulated metagenome assemblies, MetaGeneAnnotator produced the greatest percentage of correct predictions with 72 and 80% respectively (Figure <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S1</xref>
). MetaGeneMark correctly predicted 70 and 73% of genes in the Mock5 and Mock10 assemblies respectively. FragGeneScan and Orphelia predicted the least number of genes correctly from both simulated dataset assemblies (Figure <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S1</xref>
).</p>
<p>This comparative analysis of four different gene prediction tools using simulated data identified MetaGeneAnnotator and MetaGeneMark to both provide accurate gene predictions, identifying more than 70% of all genes, and identifying correct stop codon regions for more than 90% of all genomic coding sequences (Figure <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S1</xref>
). MetaGeneAnnotator was initially designed to predict both phage and prokaryotic genes (Noguchi et al., <xref rid="B49" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
) and has been designed to accommodate overlapping ORFs. Based on the results of our gene prediction analysis, MetaGeneAnnotator gene prediction was incorporated into the HoloVir workflow, however any appropriate gene prediction tool could be incorporated into this workflow as the field progresses.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Taxonomic analysis of viral metagenomes in HoloVir</title>
<p>The overwhelming presence of genomic material from lysogenic viruses distributed throughout cellular genomes invariably means that cellular genomic resources are littered with unidentified viral orphans that can significantly hinder identification of viral sequences (Soffer et al., <xref rid="B63" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). In addition, databases are biased toward cellular proteins as highlighted by the NCBIs Entrez database, which contains 3.1 million viral proteins compared to 31.6 million eukaryotic proteins and 180.6 million bacterial proteins (NCBI, <xref rid="B47" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). For this reason, most viral metagenome studies utilize the exclusively viral RefSeq database (Roux et al., <xref rid="B61" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
; Soffer et al., <xref rid="B63" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
; Weynberg et al., <xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
), which is not capable of detecting cellular contamination in metavirome data sets. To overcome this limitation, HoloVir uses a cellular marker database to identify potential cellular contamination along with comparisons to phage-specific sequence clusters (Kristensen et al., <xref rid="B35" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
) to complement viral RefSeq phage assignments. As the HoloVir pipeline was developed to investigate viral assemblages associated with invertebrate holobionts, its marker database also incorporates eukaryotic, bacterial and archaeal gene markers although alternative bacterial marker datasets, such as those generated through PhyloSift (Darling et al., <xref rid="B15" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
), can also be used for validation. Including a cellular and virus marker database for viral RefSeq validation is essential to ensure that taxonomic assignment parameters are stringent enough to provide accurate composition of viral metagenomes. HoloVir also utilized a two-tiered taxonomic analysis that performs assignments on both single read data and genes predicted from assembled data. This complementary approach can provide confirmation of community assignments, increasing the overall confidence of the analysis.</p>

<sec><title>Functional analysis of viral metagenomes in HoloVir</title>
<p>Investigations of microbial metagenomes in previous studies (Anderson et al., <xref rid="B4" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
; Vázquez-Castellanos et al., <xref rid="B71" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
) have made functional assignments utilizing existing genomic resources, including Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COG), the SEED database and the Kyoto Encyclopaedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) (Anderson et al., <xref rid="B4" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). SEED is a framework of subsystem annotations generated from bacterial and archaeal genomes within the FIGfam database and while FIGfam currently includes 1713 viral genomes, this genomic information is yet to be incorporated into the SEED subsystem annotations (Meyer et al., <xref rid="B44" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
). Phage SEED classifications have been developed as a part of the PhAnToMe phage annotation and analysis project (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.phantome.org/">http://www.phantome.org/</ext-link>
). All phage subsystems that have been curated have been included, however only 40 different subsystems have been classified and they are all limited to bacteriophages. KEGG also facilitates functional sequence annotation but while it contains functional information for over 4000 bacteria and eukaryotes, it incorporates no viral genomic data. A recent release of KEGG, termed KOALA (KEGG Orthology and Links Annotation) links existing KEGG orthology assignments with sequences from the RefSeq database, however viral sequences in KOALA remain largely unannotated due to the absence of viral genomic information used to develop the KEGG orthology system (Kanehisa et al., <xref rid="B34" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). COG uses complete microbial genomes and orthology based approaches to assign functions using specific protein assignments as well as broad functional classifications (Galperin et al., <xref rid="B21" ref-type="bibr">2015</xref>
). A recently developed functional ontology (FOAM) assigns gene functions relevant to environmental microorganisms based on Hidden Markov Models (Prestat et al., <xref rid="B54" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). An extension to typical viral functions (“virus structure,” “virus replication” and “virus-host interaction”) has not yet been presented but would be extremely valuable for functional analysis of viral metagenomes. While all the mentioned resources have been invaluable to microbial metagenomics, they are designed to describe cellular functionality (Meyer et al., <xref rid="B45" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
), hence have limited utility for functional characterization of viral metagenomes.</p>
<p>The Gene Ontology (GO) database incorporates curated functional assignments of protein sequences. Based on sequence data from model organisms, a total of 4267 viral proteins with GO functional annotations are incorporated into the database, although these viral sequences are almost exclusively human pathogens or viruses related to agricultural species and do not cover a wide range of viral taxa. The Swiss-Prot component of the UniprotKB database contains 550,116 manually curated proteins including 16,605 viral sequences comprised of 9228 dsDNA, 4391 single stranded RNA (ssRNA), 1404 retro-transcribing, 889 double stranded RNA (dsRNA) and 612 ssDNA viral sequences. The UniprotKB/Swiss-Prot sequences also contain keyword assignments that facilitate direct functional comparisons between individual viral metagenomes. Within the HoloVir workflow we have therefore incorporated a two-step functional characterization comprising broad classification of COG functions (informative for identifying viral accessory genes present in metavirome communities) and a more targeted analysis of enriched Swiss-Prot keywords.</p>
<p>Analysis of simulated viral metagenomes has facilitated identification of the optimal assembly and gene prediction strategy for viral metagenomes and review of available genomic resources has further defined the optimal workflow for functional assignment and characterization. HoloVir utilizes the <italic>de novo</italic>
assembler in CLC genomics workbench to produce viral contigs, then predicts viral gene sequences using MetaGeneAnnotator. This combination of methods is sensitive enough to assemble both simple and more complex viral communities, and can account for viral microdiversity in the production of viral contigs. HoloVir utilizes pairwise sequence comparisons to the viral RefSeq database in order to assign taxonomy to both single reads and predicted genes. A cellular and phage marker dataset was also used to confirm phage taxonomic assignment and identify potential cellular contamination. Finally, HoloVir performs broad community functional assignment using EggNOG 4.5 and UniprotKB/SwissProt comparisons to infer gene functions (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">1</xref>
). Although initially designed for analysis of holobiont-associated viral metagenomics analysis, its use could also be broadened into any viral metagenomic studies. HoloVir is implemented as a collection of Linux shell scripts and is freely available on github (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://github.com/plaffy/HoloVir">https://github.com/plaffy/HoloVir</ext-link>

<sec><title>Taxonomic assignment of holobiont viral metagenomes</title>
<p>Taxonomic assignment of single-reads and predicted genes from the assemblies was performed following BLAST searches against the NCBI viral RefSeq database (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2A</xref>

<p>A normalized comparison between assigned viral RefSeq matches from read-centric and gene-centric data for <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
was performed (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2A</xref>
), as well as a similar normalized comparison for the phage-specific and cellular markers (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2B</xref>
). In order to demonstrate differences in taxonomic assignments between the read- and gene-centric approaches, we provide a detailed report for <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
(results from the <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
comparisons can be found in Figure <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S2</xref>
). Using the viral RefSeq assignments, 3074 single reads and 3095 predicted genes were attributed to dsDNA viruses, with 91.4% of assigned single read and 95.2% of predicted genes annotated as bacteriophage in the Order Caudovirales (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2A</xref>
). A total of 6.8% single reads and 2.4% predicted genes were assigned to ssDNA viruses, three retro-transcribing virus matches were identified from both single read and predicted genes, and 1.3% unclassified phage assignments were made for single reads, and 1.7% from predicted genes. Taxonomic annotation using viral RefSeq identified Caudovirales as the dominant group for dsDNA viral assignments. This was confirmed by the phage-specific marker assignments which assigned 15,698 single reads and 1658 predicted genes to Caudovirales (Figures <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S3B</xref>
, <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S5B</xref>
). In a normalized comparison of phage-specific marker assignments (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2B</xref>
), almost three times as many ssDNA reads were assigned, compared to the predicted genes for both viral RefSeq and phage-specific marker analyses. This was largely due to an abundance of Microviridae assignments that were not well represented in the assembled predicted genes (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2</xref>
). In addition, subfamily-assignments, such as the Felixouna-like virus, were present in the single read analysis but absent in the predicted gene analysis.</p>
<p>Several non-phage assignments could also be made from viral RefSeq analysis of single read and predicted gene datasets, with Mimiviridae, Phycodnaviridae, Poxviridae, Polydnaviridae and Retroviridae assignments all observed. With the exception of Retroviridae, a greater number of assignments were provided by predicted gene analysis compared to single read analysis and Polydnaviridae and Poxviridae were only assigned in the predicted gene data set (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2A</xref>
). This increased detection in predicted gene data is likely due to the assembly process, which facilitates the production of longer sequences, increasing the likelihood that significant BLAST results will be returned.</p>
<p>In assessing the distribution of marker matches on assembled contigs, a total of 1411 contigs returned a single POG marker match and 235 contigs returned multiple matches. For the contigs with multiple matches, 233 returned non-contradictory taxonomic assignments and two returned contradictory taxonomic assignments (not from the same viral group). A total of 388 <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
contigs returned a single POG marker match and 96 contigs returned multiple matches, although all of these were non-contradictory taxonomic assignments. Non-contradictory POG marker assignments provide further support for taxonomic classifications of predicted genes.</p>

<sec><title>Comparison of metavirome composition between samples</title>
<p>In order to compare viral community composition across holobiont species, a normalized comparison of viral RefSeq assignments was performed on single reads (Figure <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SM1">S7</xref>
) and predicted genes (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
) from <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
and <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
using MEGAN5. Following normalization between datasets, the majority of viral assignments of the predicted genes were to dsDNA viruses (95 and 96.5% for <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
and <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
respectively), with only a small proportion of assignments made to ssDNA viruses (2.3 and 1.4% for <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
, and <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
respectively) and retro-transcribing viruses (0.1% for <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
and none for <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
) (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
). Bacteriophage in the order <italic>Caudovirales</italic>
dominated all viral assignments in both datasets, but the distribution of <italic>Caudovirales</italic>
families differed between holobiont taxa, with a greater number of <italic>Siphoviridae</italic>
and <italic>Podoviridae</italic>
assignments in <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
and a greater number of <italic>Myoviridae</italic>
assignments in <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
. Similarly, variation between holobionts were also observed for ssDNA and retro-transcribing viruses, with <italic>Circoviridae, Inoviridae, Poxviridae, Polydnaviridae</italic>
and <italic>Retroviridae</italic>
only occurring in <italic>P. damicornis</italic>
(Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>

<sec><title>Assessing cellular contamination of viral datasets based on universal marker genes</title>
<p>The cellular marker database was used to identify possible contaminating cellular sequences. A total of 21 single-read and 55 predicted gene assignments were made to bacterial marker genes in our normalized comparison (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2B</xref>
). Closer inspection of the specific marker assignments from the predicted genes identified five matches to a DNA-directed RNA polymerase and 24 matches to tRNA-synthetase genes, as well as 10 ribosomal protein genes, four translation elongation factor genes, nine thiol-disulfide isomerase genes and one EMAP domain protein. RNA polymerase genes are often found in DNA viruses as they play a key role in viral genome replication and transcription (Sonntag and Darai, <xref rid="B65" ref-type="bibr">1995</xref>
), and tRNA-synthetases have been reported in genomes of several large viruses (Abergel et al., <xref rid="B1" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
; Yutin and Koonin, <xref rid="B83" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
; Yutin et al., <xref rid="B84" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). Similarly, translational elongation factors have been identified as essential cofactors of RNA-dependant RNA polymerases in RNA bacteriophages (Li et al., <xref rid="B38" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
). We therefore conclude that most of the hits to the cellular marker proteins are actually viral proteins, from so far unknown lineages and thus having slightly higher sequence similarity to cellular rather than viral reference sequences.</p>

<sec><title>Functional assignment of predicted viral genes</title>

and 1041 for <italic>R. odorabile</italic>
, of which 3172 and 454 respectively were categorized as “function unknown” (Figure <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">4</xref>

respectively and a further 135 and 118 functions were found to be under-represented in <italic>P. damicornis</italic>

<sec sec-type="conclusions" id="s4"><title>Conclusion</title>
<p>HoloVir is a robust and flexible analysis workflow for investigating the taxonomic composition and gene functions of viral communities associated with invertebrate holobionts across environments, species or experimental treatments. Key computational methods were validated using simulated datasets and accordingly implemented in HoloVir. The utility of the workflow was demonstrated on two distinct holobiont-associated viral metagenomes. The workflow has been shown to be flexible enough to accommodate taxonomically diverse hosts, yet specific enough to identify differences within the associated viral assemblages. Visualization of output data can be specifically tailored to complement the scientific focus. For instance, here we visualized taxonomic composition using MEGAN5 and functional composition using COG functional category classifications and enrichment/depletion analysis of Swiss-Prot keywords. However, heatmaps or pathway-level visualization tools that identify key differences in function across viral metagenomes may also be appropriate for larger sample sets. HoloVir provides a valuable tool for investigating viruses associated with invertebrate holobionts and is freely available upon request.</p>
