Recombination and Selection in the Evolution of Picornaviruses and Other Mammalian Positive-Stranded RNA Viruses
28 Oct 2006
Abstract excerpt
Picornaviridae are a large virus family causing widespread, often pathogenic infections in humans and other mammals. Picornaviruses are genetically and antigenically highly diverse, with evidence for complex evolutionary histories in which recombination plays a major part. To investigate the nature of recombination and selection processes underlying the evolution of serotypes within different picornavirus genera,...
