Abstract

We report here the isolation and complete genome sequencing of a large double-stranded DNA virus, Powai Lake megavirus, for the first time from India. The isolation of a large DNA virus with genome size > 1 Mb from India further attests to the prevalence of Giant viruses in different environmental niches.
