Abstract excerpt

Poliovirus isolates were screened for recombinants by combined analysis of two distant polymorphic segments of the poliovirus genome (one in the capsid and the other in the polymerase-coding region). Using a restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assay, a high number of recombinant genom...
