Journal ArticleDOI

Yi Guan,Bo-Jian Zheng,Yuxian He,X. L. Liu,Z. X. Zhuang,CL Cheung,S. W. Luo,Philip H. Li,L. J. Zhang,Y. J. Guan,K. M. Butt,K. L. Wong,K. W. Chan,Wilina Lim,Kennedy F. Shortridge,K. Y. Yuen,Joseph S. M. Peiris,Leo L.M. Poon +17 more
TL;DR: The detection of SCoV-like viruses in small, live wild mammals in a retail market indicates a route of interspecies transmission, although the natural reservoir is not known.
Journal ArticleDOI
Origins and evolutionary genomics of the 2009 swine-origin H1N1 influenza A epidemic.
Gavin J. D. Smith,Dhanasekaran Vijaykrishna,Justin Bahl,Samantha Lycett,Michael Worobey,Oliver G. Pybus,Siu Kit Ma,CL Cheung,Jayna Raghwani,Samir Bhatt,J. S. Malik Peiris,Yi Guan,Andrew Rambaut +12 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the new swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus emerged in Mexico and the United States was derived from several viruses circulating in swine, and that the initial transmission to humans occurred several months before recognition of the outbreak.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genesis and source of the H7N9 influenza viruses causing human infections in China

TL;DR: It is shown that H7 viruses probably transferred from domestic duck to chicken populations in China on at least two independent occasions and subsequently reassorted with enzootic H9N2 viruses to generate the H7N9 outbreak lineage, and a related previously unrecognized H7n7 lineage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reassortment of pandemic H1N1/2009 influenza A virus in swine.
Dhanasekaran Vijaykrishna,Dhanasekaran Vijaykrishna,Leo L.M. Poon,Hongbo Zhu,Hongbo Zhu,S. K. Ma,Olive T. W. Li,CL Cheung,Gavin J. D. Smith,Gavin J. D. Smith,Joseph S. M. Peiris,Yi Guan,Yi Guan +12 more
TL;DR: Through systematic surveillance of influenza viruses in swine from a Hong Kong abattoir, a reassortant progeny of H1N1/2009 with swine viruses is characterized, which could produce variants with transmissibility and altered virulence for humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence and predominance of an H5N1 influenza variant in China
Gavin J. D. Smith,Xiaohui Fan,Jin Wang,Kenneth S. M. Li,K. Qin,Jinxia Zhang,Dhanasekaran Vijaykrishna,CL Cheung,Kai Huang,J. M. Rayner,Joseph S. M. Peiris,Honglin Chen,Robert G. Webster,Yi Guan +13 more
TL;DR: Genetic and antigenic analyses revealed the emergence and predominance of a previously uncharacterized H5N1 virus sublineage (Fujian-like) in poultry since late 2005, resulting in a new transmission and outbreak wave in Southeast Asia.
