Plaquing characteristics of influenza A virus recombinants of defined genetic composition. Brief report.
The plaque size and morphology of twenty-two influenza A virus recombinants representing seven distinct families were analyzed on MDCK cells. By examination of the genetic composition of the recombinants no relationship could be established between any gene, including those coding for the surface antigens, and the plaque size and morphology.
