The Double-Stranded DNA Virosphere as a Modular Hierarchical Network of Gene Sharing
Virus genomes are prone to extensive gene loss, gain, and exchange and share no universal genes. Therefore, in a broad-scale study of virus evolution, gene and genome network analyses can complement traditional phylogenetics. We performed an exhaustive comparative analysis of the genomes of double-s...
