摘要：

Capsid fragments found in negatively stained preparations of reovirus exhibit several different symmetry types. The presence of whole T = 13 triangles suggests this icosahedral symmetry type for the reovirus outer shell. The T = 13.1 structure was confirmed by computer model fitting to optically low-pass filtered images of virus particles prepared by the mica-sandwich freeze-etching technique.
