This study analyzes influenza A virus deletion-containing genomes over time, finding that specific mutations enhance their replication and interference while being lethal in wild-type backgrounds.

This study shows environmental stochasticity can explain within-host viral evolution patterns without needing demographic stochasticity or constant population size assumptions.

The paper introduces a novel Pagels λ adjustment to model phylogenetic signal in trait covariance analysis, revealing ecological associations and evolutionary shape covariation in surgeonfishes.

This study models the fitness effects of coinfection and reassortment in segmented viruses, finding that increased genetic divergence and inter-strain mixing generally reduce viral fitness.
