Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157 (O157) strains can be classified into clades (one of several phylogenetic groups) by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs): these are clade 1, clade 2, clade 3, descendant and ancestral clades 4/5, clade 6, clade ...

The AEGEAN-169 clade of bacterioplankton is synonymous with SAR11 subclade V (HIMB59) and metabolically distinct [PDF]
Bacterioplankton of the SAR11 clade are the most abundant marine microorganisms and consist of numerous subclades spanning order-level divergence (Pelagibacterales). The assignment of the earliest diverging subclade V (a.k.a.

Seasonal vaccine-induced immunity shows preserved cross-reactivity to H3N2 subclade K in adultsResearch in context [PDF]
Summary: Background: Influenza A subclade K viruses caused high infection rates in the 2025/2026 Northern Hemisphere season, raising concerns about antigenic drift and reduced vaccine effectiveness.

Insights into the diversification of subclade IVa bHLH transcription factors in Fabaceae
Background Fabaceae plants appear to contain larger numbers of subclade IVa basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors than other plant families, and some members of this subclade have been identified as saponin biosynthesis regulators. We aimed

Reduced neutralising antibody responses against emerging 2025/26 influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 subclade D.3.1 and A(H3N2) subclade K viruses among healthcare workers, Finland, August to October 2025 [PDF]
During autumn 2025, drifted influenza A(H3N2) subclade K and A(H1N1)pdm09 subclade D.3.1. and D.3.1.1 viruses were detected in Finland. We assessed antibody responses against 2024/25 vaccine and 2025/26 epidemic influenza A strains among 46 Finnish ...

In Australia and New Zealand, late outbreaks of an A(H3N2) variant virus termed subclade K extended the 2025 influenza season. Subclade K viruses were genetically and antigenically distinct from the 2025 vaccine A(H3N2) strain A/Croatia/10136RV/2023 ...

Reduced T cell epitope cross-conservation and immunogenic potential is associated with emergence of a dominant influenza subclade K in 2025 [PDF]
Subclade K is a newly emergent influenza A/H3N2 strain that became the dominant strain circulating globally; more than 90% of influenza A virus (IAV) cases in 2025–26 were subclade K.

Host cell entry and neutralisation sensitivity of H3N2 influenza A virus subclade K [PDF]
In 2025, a mutated H3N2 lineage, subclade K, emerged, showing high activity in many regions. Mutations in the hemagglutinin (HA) may affect cell entry and antibody-mediated neutralisation.
