Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Understanding the molecular principles of influenza A virus (IAV) host-switching remains a fundamental challenge, as many landmark spillovers occurred before the era of high-resolution genomics. Here, we demonstrate that H3N2 canine influenza virus (CIV) provides a uniquely powerful evolutionary proxy to resolve the real-time molecular logic of host-switching. As a paradigm of rapid avi...
