Abstract

Synthesizing evolution in the post-Darwinian era has been a very challenging endeavor, both because of the large number of perspectives relating to a single natural phenomenon and because of the growing use of technology to map the origin of novelties and selection of biological variation that surpasses Darwin’s original proposal of evolution by means of natural selection. Much has changed since 1859 and many new perspectives on evolution have emerged to dismiss, correct, or incorporate facets of Darwin’s ideas. This review approaches these different theories by focusing on virus-host interactions and descriptions of host-switching events in 4 different viral lineages, as well as their implications for understanding host-switching phenomena themselves.
