Molecular mechanisms of variation in influenza viruses
TL;DR: This review summarizes recent information on the structure of the genes and their products, the way in which these vary and the effects of the changes on the biological activities of the virus.

TL;DR: It is found that recent swine isolates from Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, and the USA possess a haemagglutinin virtually indistinguishable from that of viruses typically associated with pigs, i.e., A/NJ/8/76, and that the circulation of particular variants is associated with the geographical location of the animals.

Characterization of a novel haemagglutinin subtype (H13) of influenza A viruses from gulls
TL;DR: It is proposed that this new HA antigen, which has so far been detected only in gulls, be designated H13 and that A/gull/Maryland/704/77 (H13N6) be designated the reference strain for this subtype.
