Recombination and population mosaic of a multifunctional viral gene, adeno-associated virus cap.

Homologous recombination is a dominant force in evolution and results in genetic mosaics. To detect evidence of recombination events and assess the biological significance of genetic mosaics, genome sequences for various viral populations of reasonably large size are now available in the GenBank. We...
