Abstract: ABSTRACT Previous work has shown that non‐retroviral endogenous viral elements (EVE) are common in crustaceans, including penaeid shrimp. So far, they have been reported for infectious hypodermal and hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHHNV) and white spot… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00933-22
Abstract: The genomes of vertebrates preserve a large diversity of endogenous viral elements (remnants of ancient viruses that accumulate in host genomes over evolutionary time). Although retroviruses account for the vast majority of these elements, diverse… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/jvi.02059-19
Abstract: Viruses are generally considered to be disease-causing agents, but several instances of beneficial viral elements have been identified in insects called parasitoid wasps. These virus-derived entities are passed on through wasp generations and enhance the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1146/annurev-virology-092818-015613
Abstract: Despite a small genome size, bats have comparable diversity of retroviral and non-retroviral endogenous sequences to other mammals. These include Class I and Class II retroviral sequences, foamy viruses, and deltaretroviruses, as well as filovirus,… read more here.

DOI: 10.18926/amo/64025
Abstract: Eukaryotic genomes contain numerous copies of endogenous viral elements (EVEs), most of which are considered endogenous retrovirus (ERV) sequences. Over the past decade, non-retroviral endogenous viral elements (nrEVEs) derived from ancient RNA viruses have been… read more here.
