Virus mutation by artificially guided selection

[QUOTE="Rive, post: 6863065, member: 324024"] I'm not so sure. A petri dish culture does not have an immune system to clean up the added viruses and also: not much of a wild population will be infected (with a virus not specific for the species). You need a virus which is by default already not strictly specie-specific (like flu or Covid) to see any widespread infection 'in the wild'. But for a specie-specific virus to jump species you need a really bad luck with singular events. [/QUOTE]
