Origin and evolution of viruses: escaped DNA/RNA sequences as evolutionary accelerators and natural biological weapons.

Medical hypotheses - 1 Jan 2005

Bubanovic Ivan, Najman Stevo, Andjelkovic Zlatibor

Abstract excerpt

Knowledge of the origin and evolution of viruses could provide a better understanding of a number of phenomena in the field of evolution such as the origin and development of multi-cellular organisms, the rapid diversification of species over the last 600-700 million years and the lack of transitional forms in the evolution of species ("missing links") etc. One of the possible effects of escaped DNA/RNA sequences...
