Genetic diversity of HIV in Yunnan, China: the role of second-generation recombination involving circulating and unique recombinant forms

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The genetic diversity of HIV is significantly influenced by second-generation recombination events involving circulating recombinant forms (CRFs) and unique recombinant forms (URFs), which are crucial for the virus's evolution and dissemination. The China-Myanmar border region is recognized as a focal point for inter-subtype recombination of HIV, with recombinant strains predominating in this area....
