Abstract excerpt
Viruses use diverse strategies for their replication, related in part to the genome structure (double-stranded or single-stranded; positive sense or negative sense; RNA or DNA). During each round of replication, mutations are introduced in the viral genome and the mode of replication (stamping machine and geometric replication) may affect the population dynamics of the progeny virus. Our understanding of the...
