New Reassortant H5N6 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Viruses in Southern China, 2014 [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 New reassortant H5N6 highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses were isolated from apparently healthy domestic ducks in Southern China in 2014. Our results show that the viruses grew efficiently in eggs and replicated systemically in chickens.

Novel Avian Influenza A(H5N6) Virus in Wild Birds, South Korea, 2023. [PDF]
Emerg Infect DisWe isolated novel reassortant avian influenza A(H5N6) viruses containing genes from clade 2.3.4.4b H5N1 virus and low pathogenicity avian influenza viruses in carcasses of whooper swans and bean geese in South Korea during December 2023. Neuraminidase gene was from a clade 2.3.4.4b H5N6 virus infecting poultry and humans in China.
