RNA replication kinetics, genetic polymorphism and selection in the case of the hepatitis C virus.
We show in a simple theoretical quasispecies model that the replication dynamics of hepatitis C virus and a related model-system, the bovine viral diarrhoea virus, result in an effective reduction of RNA templates in infected cells. Viral fitness does not translate directly into RNA sequence replica...
