a
Number of PFU during transmission relative to the predicted CBS.
b
Data from reference 8.
c
Data from reference 7.
d
Data from reference 4.
e
The same population size used for MARM U was tested in another strain, MARM C (0.91 ± 0.03).
f
The same population sizes used for Marilyn were tested in another strain, Bob (10.7 ± 1.5).
g
The values in parentheses below each strain indicate the average fitness of the population before passaging.
