Identification and characterization of foot-and-mouth disease virus O1 Burgwedel/1987 as an intertypic recombinant

Krebs et al. (1992) studied Foot-and-mouth disease virus. Genetic sequencing and RNase mismatch cleavage vs. O1 Kaufbeuren and other virus strains was evaluated on Genetic sequence and recombination identification. Foot-and-mouth disease virus isolate Burgwedel/1987 subtype O1 was identified as an intertypic recombinant of O1 Kaufbeuren and a subtype C1 strain, with recombination occurring within peptide 3B1.
