BACKGROUND: Influenza A virus causes severe disease in both humans and animals and thus, has a considerably impact on economy and public health. In this study, the genetic variations of the nucleoprotein (NP) gene of influenza viruses recovered from swine in Thailand were determined. RESULTS: Twelve influenza A virus specimens were isolated from Thai swine. All samples were subjected to nucleotide sequencing of...
