How Bayesian Phylogenetics Uncovers the Evolution and Spread of Fast‑Evolving Viruses

This review outlines modern Bayesian phylogenetic methods for reconstructing the origins, timing, and population dynamics of rapidly evolving RNA viruses such as HIV, HCV, and influenza, highlighting coalescent theory, relaxed molecular clocks, and the integration of epidemiological models with genetic data.

Unraveling Virus Evolution: How Phylogenetic Trees Reveal Hidden Relationships

Virus phylogeny explores how genetic mutations, recombination, and evolutionary rates shape viral lineages, using tree-based methods such as distance, maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian approaches, while addressing challenges like variable molecular clocks, recombination, and limited sampling to infer relationships and origins.
