Hybridization Capture Reveals Evolution and Conservation across the Entire Koala Retrovirus Genome

The koala retrovirus (KoRV) is the only retrovirus known to be in the midst of invading the germ line of its host species. Hybridization capture and next generation sequencing were used on modern and museum DNA samples of koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) to examine ca. 130 years of evolution across th...
