Complete genome viral phylogenies suggests the concerted evolution of regulatory cores and accessory satellites.
We consider the concerted evolution of viral genomes in four families of DNA viruses. Given the high rate of horizontal gene transfer among viruses and their hosts, it is an open question as to how representative particular genes are of the evolutionary history of the complete genome. To address the...
