Probable association of plaque size with neuraminidase subtype among H3N2 influenza A viruses. Brief report.
The present study demonstrates that the plaque size of certain influenza A H3N2 virus recombinants is dependent on their containing a specific neuraminidase glycoprotein, but is independent of the genes coding for the HA, P3, and NP proteins.
