Genetic variation in Australian isolates of myxoma virus: an evolutionary and epidemiological study.

Archives of virology - 1 Jan 2001

Saint K M, French N, Kerr P

Abstract excerpt

Myxoma virus and the European rabbit have been coevolving in Australia since the introduction of the Standard Laboratory Strain (SLS) of myxoma virus as a biological control agent for rabbits in 1950. To examine the degree of genetic variation that has occurred in the virus between 1950 and 1995 and to find genetic markers to use for epidemiological studies, we have examined 37 recent field isolates of myxoma...
