A novel twelve class fluctuation test reveals higher than expected mutation rates for influenza A viruses

Influenza virus’ low replicative fidelity contributes to its capacity for rapid evolution. Clonal sequencing and fluctuation tests have suggested that the influenza virus mutation rate is 2.7 × 10(–6) - 3.0 × 10(–5) substitutions per nucleotide per strand copied (s/n/r). However, sequencing assays a...
