Abstract excerpt
Utilizing the reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) procedure, we have synthesized full-length copies of segment 10 from African horsesickness virus (AHSV) serotypes 1, 4 and 8. The genes were cloned, sequenced and compared with the sequence of the cognate gene from AHSV serotypes 3 and 9. Sequences were analyzed to assess evolutionary relationships among serotypes using cladistics. Based on...
