Emergence and development of H7N9 influenza viruses in China [PDF]
The occurrence of human infections with avian H7N9 viruses since 2013 demonstrates the continuing pandemic threat posed by the current influenza ecosystem in China. Influenza surveillance and phylogenetic analyses showed that these viruses were generated

Genetic features of avian influenza (A/H5N8) clade 2.3.4.4b isolated from quail in Egypt
Several genotypes of the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus H5N8 subtype within clade 2.3.4.4b continue to circulate in different species of domestic birds across Egypt. It is believed that quail contribute to virus replication and adaptation

Infection of swine ex vivo tissues with avian viruses including H7N9 and correlation with glycomic analysis [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Swine have been regarded as intermediate hosts in the spread of influenza from birds to humans but studies of the sialylated glycans that comprise their respiratory tract have not been extensively studied in the past.

Avian influenza vaccines: a practical review in relation to their application in the field with a focus on the Asian experience [PDF]
Vaccination can be a useful tool for the control of avian influenza (AI) outbreaks, but its use is prohibited in most of the countries worldwide because of its interference with AI surveillance tests and its negative impact on poultry trade.
