Genome recombination is a major strategy employed by HIV to generate new variants for the benefit of escaping immune surveillance. Near full-length genome phylogenic analysis was utilized to characterize HIV diversity in a male patient in Guangdong, China. The result showed a unique recombinant form (URF) composed of two circulating recombinant forms, CRF01_AE (92%) and CRF07_BC (8%), using six recombinant...
