Mechanisms of viral co-infection. Viral co-infection of mammalian cells can be induced by 1) Virion aggregates, 2) Bacteria bound by several viral particles, and 3) Release of viral particles or viral genomes within membrane vesicles. Genetically distinct viruses are depicted as multi-colored hexagons (virions) or curved lines (genomes).
