Mapping a viral phylogeny onto outbreak trees to improve host transmission inference

2014-11-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Developing methods to reconstruct transmission histories for viral outbreaks could provide critical information to support locating sources of disease transmission. Phylogenetic methods used to measure the degree of relatedness among sequenced viral samples have proven useful in identifying potential outbreak sources. The complex nature of infectious disease, however, makes it difficult to ass...
