Journal Article
Lu, J., Raghwani, J., Pryce, R., Bowden, T. A., Thézé, J., Huang, S., Song, Y., Zou, L., Liang, L., Bai, R., Jing, Y., Zhou, P., Kang, M., Yi, L., Wu, J., Pybus, O. G., & Ke, C. (2018). Molecular evolution, diversity and adaptation of H7N9 viruses in China during 2013-2017. https://doi.org/10.3201/eid2410.171063

The substantial increase in prevalence and emergence of antigenically divergent or highly pathogenic influenza A(H7N9) viruses during 2016–17 raises concerns about the epizootic potential of these viruses. We investigated the evolution and adaptation... Read More about Molecular evolution, diversity and adaptation of H7N9 viruses in China during 2013-2017.
