Phylogenetic and Molecular Characterization of H9N2 Influenza Isolates from Chickens in Northern China from 2007–2009
29 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
The repeated transmission to pigs and humans, and the long-term endemicity in terrestrial poultry of H9N2 viruses in China lend urgency to the study of their ecology and pathogenicity. In the present paper, we reported an H9N2 virus sublineage isolated from chickens in northern China from 2007 to 2009 has high lethality for mice. Phylogenetic analysis of the full genome indicated that six representative H9N2...
