Evidence for Water-Borne Transmission of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza H5N1 Viruses

Evidence for Water-Borne Transmission of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza H5N1 Viruses

In this study, we isolated 10 H5N1 strains from water samples in Dongting Lake and 4 H5N1 strains from lakeside backyard poultry. These isolates belonged to three distinct clades (clade 2.3.2, 2.3.4, and 7). Phylogenetic analysis showed a diversified genome constellation. The genetic characteristics...
