Abstract excerpt

The genome structure and some biological properties of parental and recombinant strains of influenza viruses differing by degrees of virulence for man were studied. The vaccine A/Leningrad/9/46 (H0N1) strain was shown to be markedly toxic and pathogenic for mice in contrast to influenza A/Brazil/...
