Frequent coinfection reduces RNA virus population genetic diversity.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Dennehy John J, Duffy Siobain, O'Keefe Kara J, Edwards Scott V, Turner Paul E

Abstract excerpt

The masking of deleterious mutations by complementation and the reassortment of virus segments (virus sex) are expected to increase population genetic diversity among coinfecting viruses. Conversely, clonally reproducing or noncoinfecting virus populations may experience clonal interference where viral clones compete with one another, preventing selective sweeps. This dynamic reduces the efficiency of selection...
