    Snippet: Individual viruses inside the quasispecies can display very different degrees of virulence. This trait is measured as the cell killing capacity, when considering cell culture experiments, and as the host morbidity or mortality, when focusing on whole-organism pathology [158, 159] . Replicative fitness is also highly variable among viruses of the same quasispecies, and in general, not directly correlated to virulence [158] . Understanding the evol.....
    Document: Individual viruses inside the quasispecies can display very different degrees of virulence. This trait is measured as the cell killing capacity, when considering cell culture experiments, and as the host morbidity or mortality, when focusing on whole-organism pathology [158, 159] . Replicative fitness is also highly variable among viruses of the same quasispecies, and in general, not directly correlated to virulence [158] . Understanding the evolution of these two viral traits is fundamental to understanding and controlling the spread of viral diseases and to the design of LAVs.
