Evolution of foot-and-mouth disease virus intra-sample sequence diversity during serial transmission in bovine hosts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
RNA virus populations within samples are highly heterogeneous, containing a large number of minority sequence variants which can potentially be transmitted to other susceptible hosts. Consequently, consensus genome sequences provide an incomplete picture

Identification of drug resistance mutations in HIV from constraints on natural evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) evolves with extraordinary rapidity. However, its evolution is constrained by interactions between mutations in its fitness landscape.

The mode and tempo of hepatitis C virus evolution within and among hosts

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Background Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a rapidly-evolving RNA virus that establishes chronic infections in humans. Despite the virus' public health importance and a wealth of sequence data, basic aspects of HCV molecular evolution remain poorly understood.

Molecular epidemiology and pathogenicity of H5N1 and H9N2 avian influenza viruses in clinically affected chickens on farms in Bangladesh

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2021
Avian influenza virus (AIV) subtypes H5N1 and H9N2 co-circulate in poultry in Bangladesh, causing significant bird morbidity and mortality. Despite their importance to the poultry value chain, the role of farms in spreading and maintaining AIV infections

Comparative susceptibility of mosquito populations in North Queensland, Australia to oral infection with dengue virus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dengue is the most prevalent arthropod-borne virus, with at least 40% of the world's population at risk of infection each year. In Australia, dengue is not endemic, but viremic travelers trigger outbreaks involving hundreds of cases.
