Improved integration time estimation of endogenous retroviruses with phylogenetic data.
<h4>Background</h4>Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are genetic fossils of ancient retroviral integrations that remain in the genome of many organisms. Most loci are rendered non-functional by mutations, but several intact retroviral genes are known in mammalian genomes. Some have been ado...
