A. Fusaro et al.. Introduction into Nigeria of a Distinct Genotype of Avian Influenza Virus (H5N1). Emerg Infect Dis. 2009 Mar
Genetic characterization of highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (H5N1) isolated in July 2008 in Nigeria indicates that a distinct genotype, never before detected in Africa, reached the continent. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the viruses are genetically closely related to European and Middle Eastern influenza A (H5N1) isolates detected in 2007.
