SARS-CoV-2 Co-Infections and Recombinations Identified by Long-Read Single-Molecule Real-Time Sequencing

ABSTRACT Co-infection with at least 2 strains of virus is the prerequisite for recombination, one of the means of genetic diversification. Little is known about the prevalence of these events in SARS-CoV-2, partly because it is difficult to detect them. We used long-read PacBio single-molecule real-...
