title: [Genetic variety of influenza A virus in the populations of wild birds in the south of Western Siberia].
abstract: Influenza A virus variants belonging to H3 and H4 subtypes were isolated from wild ducks inhabiting in the south of Western Siberia. Phylogenetic analysis of hemagglutinin (HA) gene of these viruses has revealed that H3 isolates are closely related to those isolated from the bird inhabiting in West Europe (A/Teal/Germany/wv01r/01, A/Duck/Ukraine/1/63) and China (A/Aquatic bird/Hong Kong/399/99); and those isolated from the birds inhabiting in Germany (A/Garganey/Germany/wv157k/01, A/Teal/Germany/wv153k/01). Thus, closely related influenza A virus variants circulate in the populations of the wild birds inhabiting in greatly spaced regions of Eurasia.
