Genetic variation in West Nile virus from naturally infected mosquitoes and birds suggests quasispecies structure and strong purifying selection.

The Journal of general virology - 1 Aug 2005

Jerzak Greta, Bernard Kristen A, Kramer Laura D, Ebel Gregory D

Abstract excerpt

Intrahost genetic diversity was analysed in naturally infected mosquitoes and birds to determine whether West Nile virus (WNV) exists in nature as a quasispecies and to quantify selective pressures within and between hosts. WNV was sampled from ten infected birds and ten infected mosquito pools c...
