Simian virus 40 minichromosomes as targets for retroviral integration in vivo.

abstract：:Traits that enable species to persist in ecological environments are often maintained over time, a phenomenon known as niche conservatism. Here we argue that ecological niches function at levels above species, notably at the level of genus for mammals, and that niche conservatism is also evident above the species leve...
