Filoviruses are among the globe's most lethal—indeed, so dangerous they can be handled only in high-security laboratories.

Could today's single-stranded RNA viruses be descendants of these precellular RNA molecules? Others have argued that precursors of today's NCLDVs led to the emergence of eukaryotic cells.

The genomes of all influenza viruses are composed of eight single-stranded RNA segments (Figure 1). These RNAs are negative-sense molecules, meaning that they must be copied into positive-sense ...
