Vero cells persistently infected with tacaribe virus: role of interfering particles in the establishment of the infection
Eight Vero cell sublines (Vero T) persistently infected with wild type Tacaribe virus replicated in different hosts were established. In order to unravel the mecha- nism involved in the initiation and maintenance of persistence, the properties of virus shed by the sublines and the presence of interf...
