Impact of preexisting virus-specific maternal antibodies on cytomegalovirus population genetics in a monkey model of congenital transmission

D. Vera Cruz, C. S. Nelson, D. Tran, P. A. Barry, A. Kaur, K. Koelle, S. R. Permar

This study examines how maternal antibodies affect CMV genetic diversity in a monkey model, finding no impact on viral genetic diversity despite reduced viral load and congenital transmission.
