Abstract
Among 34 Epstein-Barr virus isolates from nonimmunocompromised Chinese donors, we identified three intertypic recombinants with type 1 sequences at the EBNA2 locus and type 2 sequences at some or all of the EBNA3A, -3B, and -3C loci. These appear to have arisen from independent, evolutionarily recent recombination events; such events may be commoner in nonimmunocompromised populations than hitherto imagined.
