Predicting mammalian hosts in which novel coronaviruses can be generated
Homologous recombination between co-infecting coronaviruses can produce novel pathogens. Here, Wardeh et al. develop a machine learning approach to predict associations between mammals and multiple coronaviruses and hence estimate the potential for generation of novel coronaviruses by recombination.
