Simple Epidemiological Dynamics Explain Phylogenetic Clustering of HIV from Patients with Recent Infection
28 Jun 2012
Abstract excerpt
Phylogenies of highly genetically variable viruses such as HIV-1 are potentially informative of epidemiological dynamics. Several studies have demonstrated the presence of clusters of highly related HIV-1 sequences, particularly among recently HIV-infected individuals, which have been used to argue for a high transmission rate during acute infection. Using a large set of HIV-1 subtype B pol sequences collected...
