2b or Not 2b: Experimental Evolution of Functional Exogenous Sequences in a Plant RNA Virus

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is pervasive in viruses and thought to be a key mechanism in their evolution. On the other hand, strong selective constraints against increasing genome size are an impediment for HGT, rapidly purging horizontally transferred sequences and thereby potentially hindering...
