Prediction of integrated proviruses by VIBRANT and comparison to PHASTER, Prophage Hunter, and VirSorter. a Schematic representing the method used by VIBRANT to identify and extract provirus regions from host scaffolds using annotations. Briefly, v-scores are used to cut scaffolds at host-specific sites and fragments are trimmed to the nearest viral annotation. b Comparison of proviral predictions within four complete bacterial genomes between VIBRANT, PHASTER, Prophage Hunter, and VirSorter. For PHASTER, putative proviruses are colored according to “incomplete” (red), “questionable” (blue), and “intact” (green) predictions. Prophage Hunter is colored according to “active” (green) and “ambiguous” (blue) predictions. All VirSorter predictions for categories 1 and 2 are shown in green. c Manual validation of the Bacteroides vulgatus provirus prediction made by VIBRANT. The presence of viral hallmark protein, integrase and genome replication proteins strongly suggests this is an accurate prediction
