Patterns of HIV-1 evolution in individuals with differing rates of CD4 T cell decline. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 95: 12568-12573. The original paper presenting and analyzing the data on which this problem space is based.

Presents evidence that SIVcpz, the ancestor of HIV-1, was formed by recombination between SIVrcm (from red-capped mangabeys) and SIVgsn (from greater spot-nosed monkeys).

Cornelissen M, Mulder-Kampinga G, Veenstra J, Zorgdrager F, Kuiken C, Hartman S, Dekker J, van der Hoek L, Sol C, Coutinho R, et al. 1995. Syncytium-inducing (SI) phenotype suppression at seroconversion after intramuscular inoculation of a non-syncytium-inducing/SI phenotypically mixed human immunodeficiency virus population. J. Virol. 69: 1810-1818.
Discusses two cases of health-care workers accidentally infected with mixed populations of SI and NSI strains. SI strains were most common immediately after infection, but NSI strains predominated after serocoversion.

Refines standard neutrality tests to discriminate between the effects of selection and demography by examining synonymous and nonsynonymous substitutions separately.

Studies the association between within-host evolution of HIV and host immunological function. The appearance of SI strains was found to correlate with subsequent increases in the rate of CD4 decline.
