TL;DR: It is reported that genetically and antigenically distinct sublineages of H5N1 virus have become established in poultry in different geographical regions of Southeast Asia, indicating the long-term endemicity of the virus, and the isolation of H3N2 virus from apparently healthy migratory birds in southern China.
Journal ArticleDOI

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
Dissemination, divergence and establishment of H7N9 influenza viruses in China

TL;DR: It is shown that H7N9 viruses have spread from eastern to southern China and become persistent in chickens, which has led to the establishment of multiple regionally distinct lineages with different reassortant genotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The emergence of pandemic influenza viruses
TL;DR: This review summarises the recent literature that describes the evolutionary pathway of the pandemic viruses and discusses the implications of these findings on the early detection and control of future pandemics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of the Progenitors of Indonesian and Vietnamese Avian Influenza A (H5N1) Viruses from Southern China

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors conducted further sequencing and analysis of samples collected in live-poultry markets from Guangdong, Hunan, and Yunnan in southern China from 2001 to 2004.
