Abstract

This paper presents genetic data on the full genome analysis of A/chicken/Tajikistan/2379/2018 H9N2 influenza virus isolated in September 2018 from chicken pathological material received from poultry farms of the Republic of Tajikistan and subtyped as H9N2 by serological and molecular methods. According to the results of hemagglutinin gene sequencing, the amino acid sequence of the cleavage site was RSSR/GLF, which is typical for low-virulent avian influenza virus. Phylogenetic analysis of the nucleotide sequence of a hemagglutinin gene fragment (nt 1-1539 of the open reading frame) showed that the A/chicken/Tajikistan/2379/2018 H9N2 isolate belongs to the Y280 genetic group of low-virulent A/H9 influenza virus, which is widespread in Southeast Asia. The complete nucleotide sequence of the viral genome was determined. Comparative analysis of all genomic segments revealed that the A/chicken/Tajikistan/2379/2018 H9N2 virus is closely related to an A/H9 influenza virus isolated in the Far East of the Russian Federation in 2018. Genetic similarity (97.1-99% identity in four out of eight viral genes) was found to isolates of an H7N9 subtype virus recovered in the Inner Mongolia and Hebei regions of China in 2017. According to the analysis of the predicted amino acid sequence of the studied isolate, the positions of some molecular markers indicate possible adaptation of the virus to mammals. Further genetic analysis showed that this virus belongs to genotype G57.
