Molecular Characterization and Genetic Analysis of Highly Pathogenic H5N1 Clade 2.3.4.4b in Seagulls from Dukan Lake, Iraq

2024-10-03

Abstract excerpt

Avian influenza virus (AIV) remains a significant global threat, with periodic reemergence in Iraq. This study presents the first molecular characterization of the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b in seagulls. The H5N1 AIV was identified during outbreaks in 2024 at Dukan Lake in Sulaimani province. Phylogenetic analysis of the HA gene revealed that the Dukan Lake strain belongs to subcl...
