An amplicon-based sequencing framework for accurately measuring intrahost virus diversity using PrimalSeq and iVar.

abstract：:The use of DNA sequences to estimate the timing of evolutionary events is increasingly popular, although it is fraught with practical difficulties. But the exponential growth of relevant information and improved methods of analysis are providing increasingly reliable sequence-derived dates, and it may become possible ...
