PLoS Genet., 12, 2016, e1006111 This paper analyzes and quantifies the initial bottleneck during mosquito infection by DENV, using deep-sequencing and bioinformatics approaches. It nicely illustrates the impact of host genetics on bottleneck size—in this case for four different Aedes aegypti isofemale lines.

Accumulation of mutations comes with a fitness cost that triggers reversion towards consensus.

Cell Host Microbe 16 (2014), 691–700 By neutrally barcoding IAV, the authors could follow the evolution of an artificial mix of viruses in cell culture as well as in vivo. They demonstrate the existence of a strong transmission bottleneck depending both on the recipient host and the mode of transmission.

Cell Host Microbe 19 (2016), 493–503 After studies demonstrating the importance of the mutation rate through the generation of fidelity variants, this study goes to analyze a poliovirus recombinant-defective mutant. In combination with mutation modifying fidelity, the authors demonstrate that recombination allows the regrouping of beneficial mutations and the purification of deleterious ones, and is thus a key parameter in viral fitness.
