Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) H9N2 subtype virus has been prevalent in domestic poultry in China over two decades. This study was to determine the genetic evolution trend of H9N2 avian influenza virus (AIV) under immune pressure of vaccine. METHODS: H9 HA sequences of 40 isolates from the present study and 136 pandemic strains and 7 classical strains from China downloaded from GenBank, were...
