Comparative Studies of Plaque Variants Derived From a Florida Strain of Venezuelan Equine Encephalomyelitis Virus

Pedersen, Carl E.
RESUMO
Small- and large-plaque variants of a Florida strain (Fe 3-7c) of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis virus were studied in vivo and in vitro. The small-plaque variant was less virulent in mice, hamsters, and guinea pigs than the large-plaque variant. The variants could be distinguished by calcium phosphate chromatography. The implications of plaque variants within a mixed virus population are discussed.
