Identification of genetic determinants of a tick-borne flavivirus associated with host-specific adaptation and pathogenicity

Tick-borne flaviviruses are maintained in nature in an enzootic cycle involving a tick vector and a vertebrate host. Thus, the virus replicates in two disparate hosts, each providing selective pressures that can influence virus replication and pathogenicity. To identify viral determinants associated...
