title: Genetic variation among Lassa and Lassa-related arenaviruses analysed by T1-oligonucleotide mapping.
abstract: Total RNA and small RNA species of several African arenavirus strains have been studied by T1-oligonucleotide mapping. Genetic heterogeneity is observed and discussed on the basis of evolutionary biology of the Lassa complex.
