Abstract

The properties of a virus as well as of all living organisms are subject to variation giving rise to altered forms, even though the change may not be very conspicuous. Once recognized, a variant is called a mutant if it was found under experimental conditions, indicating a probable direct origin from the apparently homogeneous starting population. In fact, preparations of viruses are rarely free of at least a few variants (Bawden, 1950; Garciá-Arenal et al., 1984). The word strain, on the other hand, is usually chosen for variants that are found in the field, sometimes in regions widely apart, so that the time and mode of origin of the variant remain unknown (Hennig and Wittmann, 1972). The extent to which a particular variant differs from the original strain can only be known if the detailed structure of both are determined at the molecular level. The results show that the difference between a strain and a mutant is one of degree only.
