Relationships between Total Plasma Load of Torquetenovirus (TTV) and TTV Genogroups Carried

Abstract

In 239 torquetenovirus-positive people, multiple-genogroup infections were common and associated with higher viral loads than would be expected from simple additive effects. The latter observation was restricted to the infections which included both genogroups 1 and 3, pointing to the possible existence of some kind of infection facilitation between these genogroups.
