Evolutionary history and phylogeography of human viruses.

Annual review of microbiology - 1 Jan 2008

Holmes Edward C

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the evolutionary history of human viruses, along with the factors that have shaped their spatial distributions, is one of the most active areas of study in the field of microbial evolution. I give an overview of our current knowledge of the genetic diversity of human viruses using comparative studies of viral populations, particularly those with RNA genomes, to highlight important generalities in...
