    Snippet: An interesting case of co-evolution with expected restrictions on infectivity is that of viruses that infect hosts that use alternative genetic code assignments. Indeed, studies on mitoviruses that infect fungal mitochondria led to insights on host limitation that are imposed by the use of a specialized genetic code (Shackelton and Holmes, 2008) ......
