Elevated viral recombination in short-lived hosts
2025-10-03
Abstract excerpt
Recombination (including reassortment) is a salient force in viral evolution and has been implicated in the emergence of several zoonotic pathogens in humans. Viral recombination occurs during simultaneous infection of an individual host with multiple genotypes (co-infection). Thus, processes which affect the incidence of a disease in the host population affect how often viral genotypes recombine. We investigate w...
