Endogenous retroviruses in fish genomes: from relics of past infections to evolutionary innovations?
The increasing availability of fish genome sequences has allowed to gain new insights into the diversity and host distribution of retroviruses in fish and other vertebrates. This distribution can be assessed through the identification and analysis of endogenous retroviruses, which are proviral remna...
