Abstract__ Influenza B viruses cause a significant amount of morbidity and mortality. The occurrence of homologous recombination in influenza viruses is controversial. To determine the extent of homologous recombination in influenza B viruses recombination analyses of 2 650 sequences representing all eight segments of the influenza B viruses were carried out. Only four sequences were indentified as putative recombinants which were verified using phylogenetic methods. However the mosaics detected here were much likely to represent cases of laboratory-generated artificial recombinants. As in other myxoviruses it is unlikely that homologous recombination plays a major role in influenza B virus evolution. Background Influenza B viruses cause substantial morbidity and mortality in humans. As a member of the Orthomyxoviridae family influenza B virus possesses a .
