[h=3]Abstract[/h] In 2017, we isolated an H9N2 avian influenza virus in Pakistan. Genetic analysis showed that the A/chicken/Kasoor/SI36/2017(H9N2) isolate belongs to the G1 lineage. In addition, this isolate possesses mammalian host-specific mutations which could possibly favor interspecies transmission, suggesting that Pakistani H9N2 viruses are still potentially infectious for mammals.
