| 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 |
| genetic characterization of novel reassortant h1n2 influenza a viruses isolated from pigs in southeastern china. | in december 2004, three influenza h1n2 viruses were isolated from lung samples of pigs that had died from respiratory disease on a farm in southeastern china. to determine the genetic characterization and probable origin, one of the three isolates, a/swine/zhejiang/1/2004 (sw/zj/1/2004), was genetically analyzed. sw/zj/1/2004 was a reassortant with an na gene most closely related to the corresponding gene from a human-like h3n2 virus circulating in 1995. the remaining seven genes were most close ... | 2006 | 16755371 |
