Virus-Host DB organizes data about the relationships between viruses and their
hosts, represented in the form of pairs of NCBI taxonomy IDs for viruses and
their hosts. Virus-Host DB covers viruses with complete genomes stored in
1) NCBI/RefSeq and 2) GenBank whose accession numbers are listed in EBI Genomes.
The host information is collected from RefSeq, GenBank (in free text format),
UniProt, ViralZone, and manually curated with additional information obtained
by literature surveys.

This directory contains following files.

virushostdb.tsv: Tab separated file containing the following information:
                 virus tax id   ... tax ID of a virus
