Abstract: Although hybridization between non-sibling species rarely results in viable or fertile offspring, it occasionally produces self-perpetuating or sexually-parasitic lineages in which ancestral genomes are inherited clonally and thus may persist as ‘ghost species’ after ancestor… read more here.

Abstract: The human retroviruses HTLV-1 (human T cell leukemia virus type 1) and HIV-1 persist in vivo as a reservoir of latently infected T cell clones. It is poorly understood what determines which clones survive in… read more here.
