Virology 283 (2001) 161-166. The study demonstrated that the genome of Whitewater Arroyo virus has a chimeric origin, the 5′ end of the S RNA segment being derived from an ancestor belonging to the lineage B, the 3′ end of the S RNA segment being derived from an ancestor belonging to the lineage A.
