Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>After the circulation of H5N1 in 2006, 2015 and 2016 in Iraq, a new H5N8 influenza virus emerged in Iraq in 2018. In this study, a HPAI virus subtype H5N8 was identified from backyard domestic geese in Kurdistan region, Iraq. Phylogenic analyses of the hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) genes indicated that Iraq H5N8 viruses belonged to clade 2.3.4.4 group B and clustered with is...
