Abstract

The diverse consequences of different viral infections on the human population reflect both the history of their origins and the nature of their ongoing evolution. Advances in the ease of finding and characterizing viral genome sequences are having a major impact on our understanding of the diversity of human viruses and of their relatives infecting other species.

摘要

不同病毒感染对人类群体产生的多样后果既反映了它们的起源历史，也反映了它们持续进化的本质。在查找和鉴定病毒基因组序列方面的便利进展，正对我们理解人类病毒及其感染其他物种的亲属的多样性产生重大影响。
