Villains or heroes? The raison d'être of viruses
Traditionally, viruses have been considered to be ‘pathogens’ that cause diseases in their hosts. In this review, we discuss recent studies that shed light on previously unrecognised beneficial roles of viruses in nature. Abstract The relationship between humans and viruses has a long history.
