High Prevalence of Influenza D Virus Infection in Swine, Northern Ireland
Paula Lagan, Ken Lemon
We detected influenza D virus in multiple swine herds in Northern Ireland. Whole-genome sequencing showed several circulating genotypes and novel mutations in the receptor-binding site and esterase domains of the hemagglutinin-esterase fusion protein. Transmission routes of influenza D virus to swine remain to be clarified but could be direct or indirect.
Keywords: Northern Ireland; influenza; influenza D virus; respiratory infections; swine adaptation; swine disease; viruses.
