Abstract excerpt
An important epidemiological tool in the control of epidemics of Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is genetic tracing using complete virus genome sequence data. However to interpret these genetic data, it is important to quantify underlying variation present in FMDV populations from individual tissue samples. Cloned complete capsid sequences from two virus populations from epithelium from a cow (n=26) and from a sheep...
