Insight into the global evolution of Rodentia associated Morbilli-related paramyxoviruses
Abstract One portion of the family Paramyxoviridae is a group of Unclassified Morbilli-Related Viruses (UMRV) recently recognized in wild small mammals. At a global level, the evolutionary history of these viruses is not properly understood and the relationships between UMRV and their hosts still re...
