More over, individual virus families are examined within the context of the Baltimore classification system, a key unifying theme that allows reade rs to assume basic facts about the replication strategy of a virus base d on the nature of its genome."--BOOK JACKET UR - http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_ library=BVB01&doc_number=018731216&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORD S&service_type=MEDIA ER -
