Virus evolution: disease emergence and spread.

2004-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Many viruses with RNA genomes have genetically diverse populations called quasispecies. The representation of any particular sequence within this quasispecies is a result of interactions between the host and environmental factors affecting the replication of the virus. Important biological properties are a direct result of the levels of diversity in the quasispecies ‘cloud size’, including adaptability and host ra...
