Abstract excerpt
Phylogenetic analysis was used to examine the evolutionary relationships among 99 complete HBV sequences. Analysis revealed nine viral genomes clustered with different genotypes depending on genome region analyzed. This discordance indicated that recombination events occurred during HBV history. The putative breakpoints between genomes of different genotypes have been mapped. Six mosaic genomes representing B/C...
