Wild birds play an important role in the emergence, evolution, and spread of zoonotic avian
influenza viruses (AIVs). However, there are few studies on the cross-species transmission …

Throughout the last decade, H5N6 avian influenza viruses (AIVs) circulating in poultry and
infecting humans have caused increasing global concerns that they might become a …

A number of genetic markers for virulence of avian influenza viruses (AIVs) in different hosts
have been identified. However, we isolated two H5N1 AIVs, A/Chicken/Jiangsu/k0402/2010 …

Subtype H6 avian influenza A viruses (IAVs) are enzootic and genetically diverse in both
domestic poultry and wild waterfowl and may cause spillovers in both pigs and humans …

H7N7 avian influenza virus (AIV) can divided into low-pathogenic AIV and high-pathogenic
AIV groups. It has been shown to infect humans and animals. Its prevalence state in wild …

Two human-infecting avian influenza viruses (AIVs), H7N9 and H10N8, have emerged in
China, which further indicate that the H9N2 subtype of AIVs, as an internal gene donor, may …

Wild aquatic birds are the primary hosts of H13 avian influenza viruses (AIVs). Herein, we
performed a genetic analysis of two H13 AIVs isolated from wild birds in China and …

Recent global outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) of the H5N8
subtype in poultry and wild birds have raised concerns about animal and human health …

Low pathogenic avian influenza virus, H5 or H7 subtype, possesses the potential capability
to change to highly pathogenic variant, which damages wild waterfowl, domestic poultry …

The H9N2 strains of avian influenza viruses (AIVs) circulate worldwide in poultry and cause
sporadic infection in humans. To better understand the evolution of these viruses while …
