Impacts of Genome-Wide Analyses on Our Understanding of Human Herpesvirus Diversity and Evolution.

Abstract excerpt

Until fairly recently, genome-wide evolutionary dynamics and within-host diversity were more commonly examined in the context of small viruses than in the context of large double-stranded DNA viruses such as herpesviruses. The high mutation rates and more compact genomes of RNA viruses have inspired the investigation of population dynamics for these species, and recent data now suggest that herpesviruses might...
