>Therefore, RNA recombination may engender divergence in host genes, and the
evolution of both virus and host may be interrelated and linked to the very
same eliciting process

What I'm curious about, and what Maori is apparently suspecting, is whether
viral genes coding for viral proteins can be incorporated into the bee
genome, and then later be triggered to be expressed, with deleterious
consequences to the bees.  The question then would be what was the trigger?
