Contrasting segregation patterns among endogenous retroviruses across the koala population
2023-11-17
Abstract excerpt
Koalas ( Phascolarctos cinereus ) are subject to retroviral infections by the koala retrovirus (KoRV), resulting in accumulation of heritable endogenous KoRV in the koala germline. Like other vertebrates, koalas have experienced a history of retroviral epidemics leaving marks as endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) in their genomes; another recently identified ERV lineage, named phaCin-β , shows a pattern of recent, p...
