Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) was partitioned into type, subtype and isolate categories and the average evolutionary distances within and between categories was plotted at each of 54 points along the genome. The graphs showed alternating variable and conserved domains within and between HBV subtypes and revealed that some specimens assigned to different groups are more similar across several contiguous intervals than...
