    That seems strange... Random insertion in T/C or what you'd see in e.g., SC2? It's not the other way around?

    I'm pretty sure that's what he said and I was also surprised. I'll double check.

    That seems really weird - I have a hard time seeing how it could gain an ancestral insert via passage. HOWEVER, it's possible you have both viruses in the isolate - one major without the insert and one minor with. Then once you passage, the one with the insert rapidly outcompetes the other. If what you're saying is indeed correct, then I think this is the most likely explanation

    Yes, I had the same thought.
