New Reassortant H5N6 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Viruses in Southern China, 2014

New reassortant H5N6 highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses were isolated from apparently healthy domestic ducks in Southern China in 2014. Our results show that the viruses grew efficiently in eggs and replicated systemically in chickens. They were completely lethal in chicken (100% mortality),...
