Do Taq-generated RT-PCR products from RNA viruses accurately reflect viral genetic heterogeneity?

Journal of viral hepatitis - 1 Mar 2004

Mullan B, Sheehy P, Shanahan F, Fanning L

Abstract excerpt

Since the first report of genetically heterogeneous, or quasispecies, populations of RNA viruses, the genetic heterogeneity of the RNA genomes of major viral pathogens has been extensively studied. These studies aim to provide insights into the evolutionary pressures that act upon viruses, in ord...
