Discussion: Additionally, once the
rtM204I mutant prevailed over the
rtA181T and wild-type viruses, we observed that VB developed quickly and that
rtM204I predominated among the viral quasispecies, supporting the argument that the
rtM204I mutant may have greater fitness than the
rtA181T mutant under LdT treatment.
Discussion: Although we could not completely rule out the possibility that
rtA181T and
rtM204I simultaneously exist in the same genome due to the limited sequencing coverage in this study, o
