One-way trip: Influenza virus' adaptation to gallinaceous poultry may limit its pandemic potential [PDF]
, 2014 We hypothesise that some influenza virus adaptations to poultry may explain why the barrier for human-to-human transmission is not easily overcome once the virus has crossed from wild birds to chickens.

Generation and Characterization of an Influenza D Reporter Virus
Viruses, 2023 Influenza D virus (IDV) can infect various livestock animals, such as cattle, swine, and small ruminants, and was shown to have zoonotic potential. Therefore, it is important to identify viral factors involved in the broad host tropism and identify potential antiviral compounds that can inhibit IDV infection.

Stability-mediated epistasis constrains the evolution of an influenza protein. [PDF]
, 2013 John Maynard Smith compared protein evolution to the game where one word is converted into another a single letter at a time, with the constraint that all intermediates are words: WORD→WORE→GORE→GONE→GENE. In this analogy, epistasis constrains evolution,

Detection of influenza C virus but not influenza D virus in Scottish respiratory samples
Journal of Clinical Virology, 2016 A newly proposed genus of influenza virus (influenza D) is associated with respiratory disease in pigs and cattle. The novel virus is most closely related to human influenza C virus and can infect ferrets but infection has not been reported in humans.To ascertain if influenza D virus can be detected retrospectively in patient respiratory samples.3300 ...

First sequence of influenza D virus identified in poultry farm bioaerosols in Sarawak, Malaysia
Tropical Diseases, Travel Medicine and Vaccines, 2020 In 2018, our team collected aerosols samples from five poultry farms in Malaysia. Influenza D virus was detected in 14% of samples. One sample had an 86.3% identity score similar to NCBI accession number MH785020.1.

Insights into neutralization of animal viruses gained from study of influenza virus [PDF]
, 1991 It has long been known that the binding of antibodies to viruses can result in a loss of infectivity, or neutralization, but little is understood of the mechanism or mechanisms of this process.

Influenza D Virus in Cattle, France, 2011–2014
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2015 A new influenza virus, genus D, isolated in US pigs and cattle, has also been circulating in cattle in France. It was first identified there in 2011, and an increase was detected in 2014. The virus genome in France is 94%-99% identical to its US counterpart, which suggests intercontinental spillover.
