| isolation and genetic characterization of avian origin h9n2 influenza viruses from pigs in china. | as pigs are susceptible to infection with both avian and human influenza a viruses, they have been proposed to be an intermediate host for the adaptation of avian influenza viruses to humans. in april 2006, a disease caused by highly pathogenic porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (prrsv) occurred in several pig farms and subsequently overwhelmed almost half of china with more than 2,000,000 cases of pig infection. here we report a case in which four swine h9n2 influenza viruses w ... | 2008 | 18403137 |
| [phylogenetic analysis of human/swine/avian gene reassortant h1n2 influenza a virus isolated from a pig in china]. | our aim in this study was to determine the genetic characterization and probable origin of the h1n2 swine influenza virus (a/swine/guangxi/13/2006) (sw/gx/13/06) from lung tissue of a pig in guangxi province, china. | 2008 | 18590231 |
| isolation and genetic characterization of avian-like h1n1 and novel ressortant h1n2 influenza viruses from pigs in china. | as pigs are susceptible to both human and avian influenza viruses, they have been proposed to be intermediate hosts or mixing vessels for the generation of pandemic influenza viruses through reassortment or adaptation to the mammalian host. in this study, we reported avian-like h1n1 and novel ressortant h1n2 influenza viruses from pigs in china. homology and phylogenetic analyses showed that the h1n1 virus (a/swine/zhejiang/1/07) was closely to avian-like h1n1 viruses and seemed to be derived fr ... | 2009 | 19460353 |
| emergence of human-like h3n2 influenza viruses in pet dogs in guangxi, china. | after the 1968 h3n2 pandemic emerged in humans, h3n2 influenza viruses continuously circulated and evolved in nature. an h3n2 variant was circulating in humans in the 1990s and subsequently introduced into the pig population in the 2000s. this virus gradually became the main subtype of swine influenza virus worldwide. however, there were no reports of infections in dogs with this virus. | 2015 | 25645259 |
