Where do all the subtypes go? Temporal dynamics of H8-H12 influenza A viruses in waterfowl.

Abstract:

Influenza A virus (IAV) is ubiquitous in waterfowl. In the northern hemisphere IAV prevalence is highest during the autumn and coincides with a peak in viral subtype diversity. Although haemagglutinin subtypes H1–H12 are associated with waterfowl hosts, subtypes H8–H12 are detected very infrequently. To better understand the role of waterfowl in the maintenance of these rare subtypes, we sequenced H8–H12 viruses isolated from Mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) from 2002 to 2009. These rare viruses...
