Variant of Parotid Tumour (Polyoma) Virus showing a Change in Oncogenic Properties

THE striking differences, as reported by several laboratories, in the types and frequencies of lesions and neoplasms produced in the same inbred strains of mice by parotid tumour virus indicate the existence of different variants. Close antigenic relationships, however, have been established for man...

Summary:THE striking differences, as reported by several laboratories, in the types and frequencies of lesions and neoplasms produced in the same inbred strains of mice by parotid tumour virus indicate the existence of different variants. Close antigenic relationships, however, have been established for many of the different ‘strains’ of virus.
