title: Modification of specific regions of the human cytomegalovirus genome during in vitro passage.
abstract: Different regions of the human cytomegalovirus strain AD-169 DNA molecule were tested for stability using cloned Hind III fragments. Results indicate that insertion, deletion and/or rearrangement of nucleotide sequences occur at a relatively high frequency in all parts of the human cytomegalovirus genome during in vitro passage.
