The OP addresses it to some degree, but how does this fit with the fundamental classes of phylogeny?
My poor understanding has been that there are cellular organisms / 'biota' (if those are the right terms - prokaryotes, eukaryotes, etc.) and viruses. Where do obelisks, Virus-Viroid Hybrids, Zeta-Elements, Ambiviruses all fit in that scheme, if they do at all? Or is there a new scheme?
And it is very cool for you to answer questions here. Remember us if you visit Sweden someday! :)
