Evidence that ebolaviruses and cuevaviruses have been diverging from marburgviruses since the Miocene

An understanding of the timescale of evolution is critical for comparative virology but remains elusive for many RNA viruses. Age estimates based on mutation rates can severely underestimate divergences for ancient viral genes that are evolving under strong purifying selection. Paleoviral dating, ho...
