Evidence of recombination in the capsid-coding region of type A foot-and-mouth disease virus
1 Oct 2002
Abstract excerpt
Recombination is one of the factors that contribute to genetic diversity in foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV). Similarity and bootscan analyses have provided evidence of recombination in the capsid-coding (P1) region of the virus. In the present study, of the 14 subtype A22 field isolates that were distributed in three previously described genotypes (IV, VI and VII) based on the 1D (VP1-encoding) gene sequence...
