Genomic Characterization of a Reassortant A/H1N8 Avian Influenza Virus in South American Migratory Shorebirds
Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) circulate widely among migratory birds, where frequent reassortment drives the emergence of novel genomic constellations. However, the evolutionary pathways underlying these events remain poorly understood in South America due to historically limited genomic surveillance. Here, we report...
