Abstract excerpt
Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) has been associated with respiratory illnesses like those caused by human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) infection. Similar to other pneumoviruses, genetic diversity has been reported for hMPV. Little information is currently available on the genetic variability of the G glycoprotein (G), which is the most variable gene in RSV and avian pneumovirus. The complete nucleotide...
