To better understand the role of correlated evolution and positive selection in the evolutionary dynamics of viruses infecting humans, we constructed a nearly exhaustive viral data set spanning all dsDNA, dsRNA, ssRNA, and ssDNA viruses deposited in GenBank (as of August 2017), and conducted an extensive survey of correlated evolution and diversifying selection in these viruses, asking more specifically about the prevalence of these two processes in each viral type, independently or jointly, with the specific hypothesis that the genes affected by both processes encode functions that are most critical to each viral life cycle. ./cache/cord-003861-qeao4ghg.txt ./txt/cord-003861-qeao4ghg.txt
