The two reoviruses accumulated non-canonical RNAs that retain 5′ and 3′ termini and feature one or more large internal deletions, while the rotavirus rarely accumulated such DVGs. Analyses of next-generation RNA-sequencing data sets from purified rsT1L reovirus RNA revealed many junctions, with hot spots for recombination in specific viral gene segments. Taken together, lin1 RNA profiles suggest non-canonical RNA species that differ in length but have identical termini to the parental segments accumulate variably during reovirus and rotavirus serial passage in cultured cells. ./cache/cord-103163-0rreoh4o.txt ./txt/cord-103163-0rreoh4o.txt
