Abstract excerpt
Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 viruses of the goose/Guangdong (Gs/GD) lineage have driven a global panzootic since 2020, with clade 2.3.4.4b establishing sustained transmission in wild birds. In South America, early outbreaks were largely associated with the North American-derived B3.2 genotype, which showed limited diversification after its introduction. Here, we report the genomic...
