Deep-sequencing of influenza A viruses directly in nasal swabs
The whole genome of influenza A viruses was deep-sequenced using Illumina Genome Analyzer II technology. Samples were collected in France between 2007 and 2012, spanning 5 consecutive flu seasons. Three subtypes circulated during that time: pre-pandemic H1N1, H3N2, and H1N1pdm09 (responsible for the 2009 pandemic and having replaced pre-pandemic H1N1).
