Mutations and phylogenetic analysis of the equine influenza virus (H3N8) nucleoprotein isolated in Morocco

The equine influenza (EI) is a highly contagious respiratory viral disease of equines. The aim of the present study was to determine the amino acid mutation sequences of the partial nucleoprotein (NP), which includes four epitopes of the equine leucocyte antigen (ELA) of A/equine/Nador/1/1997 (H3N8)...
