Avian Influenza Viruses: Global Panzootic, Host Range Expansion and Emerging One-Health Threats [PDF]
The review deals with the current knowledge on the global panzootic spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs), with an emphasis on the H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b virus.

Spatiotemporal structure of molecular evolution of H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses in Vietnam. [PDF]
Vietnam is one of the countries most affected by outbreaks of H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses. First identified in Vietnam in poultry in 2001 and in humans in 2004, the virus has since caused 111 cases and 56 deaths in humans. In 2003/2004

Metapopulation dynamics enable persistence of influenza A, including A/H5N1, in poultry. [PDF]
Highly pathogenic influenza A/H5N1 has persistently but sporadically caused human illness and death since 1997. Yet it is still unclear how this pathogen is able to persist globally.

The non-structural (NS) gene segment of H9N2 influenza virus isolated from backyard poultry in Pakistan reveals strong genetic and functional similarities to the NS gene of highly pathogenic H5N1 [PDF]
Apart from natural reassortment, co-circulation of different avian influenza virus strains in poultry populations can lead to generation of novel variants and reassortant viruses. In this report, we studied the genetics and functions of a reassorted non-structural gene (NS) of H9N2 influenza virus collected from back yard poultry (BYP) flock ...

Avian flu: «for whom the bell tolls»?
The family Orthomyxoviridae consists of 9 genera, including Alphainfluenza virus, which contains avian influenza viruses. In two subtypes H5 and H7 besides common low-virulent strains, a specific type of highly virulent avian virus have been described to

The mutation and genetic variation of avian influenza virus ussually associated with Hemmaglutinin (HA) and Neuraminidase (NA). The HA and NA protein are surface glycoproteins which have role for receptor binding site of the virus, determine virus subtype and genetic variation occured in those proteins.
