Analysis of Host–Parasite Incongruence in Papillomavirus Evolution Using Importance Sampling
21 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
The papillomaviruses (PVs) are a family of viruses infecting several mammalian and nonmammalian species that cause cervical cancer in humans. The evolutionary history of the PVs as it associated with a wide range of host species is not well understood. Incongruities between the phylogenetic trees of various viral genes as well as between these genes and the host phylogenies suggest historical viral recombination...
