Viral Markers That Are Associated with HIV-1 Set-Point Viral Load (VL), as Reported in Recent Studies.

Viral factor	Measurement	Impact on set-point VL	Refs
Heritability	Transmission source partner (TSP) VL	TSP VL correlates with set-point VL in linked recipients	[83]
	Genetic distance on phylogenetic tree	High heritability in set-point VL, from one infection to the next	[84]
