Emergence and Selection of a Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza H7N3 Virus
Low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) viruses of subtypes H5 and H7 have the ability to spontaneously mutate into highly pathogenic (HPAI) variants, causing high mortality in poultry. The switch to high pathogenicity is poorly understood, and evidence from the field is scarce. This study provides di...
