“…b 3H-labelled RNA of A/Duck/Hoshimin/014/78 (1 and 6), reassortants R 1 (2) (2 and 9), R 2 (6) 3 (3 and 8) and R (8) (4 and 7), and A/USSR/90/ 77 (5 and 10) was annealed with an excess of virion RNA of A/USSR/90/77 (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) or A/Duck/Hoshimin/014/78 (6, 7, 8, 9, and 10). Triangles indicate the position of homoduplexes in reassortant RNA samples (1,3,5,7,9, and 11) and 48 hours (2,4,6,8, and 10) post infection thesis can be revealed no sooner than the majority (or, at least, a large part) of the cell population is infected. At 31 °C this condition was achieved by 48 h post infection with A/USSR/90/77, R 3 or R (8); in the cells infected with R 1 (2) or R 2 (6) 3, only the synthesis of cell proteins was registered (Fig.…”
