Phylogenetic Analysis of the Entire Genome of Influenza A (H3N2) Viruses from Japan: Evidence for Genetic Reassortment of the Six Internal Genes
1 Oct 1998
Abstract excerpt
Nucleotide sequences of all eight RNA segments of 10 human H3N2 influenza viruses isolated during a 5-year period from 1993 to 1997 were determined and analyzed phylogenetically in order to define the evolutionary pathways of all genes in a parallel fashion. It was evident that the hemagglutinin and neuraminidase genes of these viruses evolved essentially in a single lineage and that amino acid changes...
