Abstract:

We propose a Bayesian model that allows the relationship among several recombinants to be inferred. The model also provides dating information for the recombinant virions. The model is an extension of a previous model introduced by Minin et. al. (2005). The model is highlighted by the use of an HIV example as well as a Hepatitis B example.
