Creation of Functional Viruses from Non-Functional cDNA Clones Obtained from an RNA Virus Population by the Use of Ancestral Reconstruction. by Ulrik Fahnøe, Anders Gorm Pedersen, Carolin Dräger, Richard J Orton, Sandra Blome, Dirk Höper, Martin Beer, Thomas Bruun Rasmussen

“…Consequently it is likely that a high proportion of individual RNA virus genomes, isolated from an infected host, will contain lethal mutations and be non-functional. This is problematic if the aim is to clone and investigate high-fitness, functional cDNAs and may also pose problems for sequence-based analysis of viral evolution. …”
