Coinfection with two closely related alphaherpesviruses results in a highly diversified recombination mosaic displaying negative genetic interference.

Abstract excerpt

Phylogenetic studies of the emergence and spread of natural recombinants in herpesviruses infecting humans and animals have been reported recently. However, despite an ever-increasing amount of evidence of recombination in herpesvirus history, the recombination process and the consequences on the genetic diversity of the progeny remain poorly characterized. We addressed this issue by using multiple...
