Improved detection of influenza A virus from blue‐winged teals by sequencing directly from swab material

Abstract The greatest diversity of influenza A virus (IAV) is found in wild aquatic birds of the orders Anseriformes and Charadriiformes. In these birds, IAV replication occurs mostly in the intestinal tract. Fecal, cloacal, and/or tracheal swabs are typically collected and tested by real‐time RT‐PC...
