| Abstract | Poyang Lake is the largest inland freshwater lake in China and contains many species of wild birds and waterfowls. We conducted a survey of avian influenza viruses in nine semi-artificial waterfowl farms in Poyang Lake during January to March of 2010. Out of 1036 cloacal swabs collected, three H3N2 and one H4N6 influenza viruses were isolated from healthy mallards. All the isolates were genetically and phylogenetically characterized. The analysis of putative HA cleavage sites showed that all the four isolates possessed the molecular characteristics (QTRGL for H3N2 viruses, PEKASR for H4N6 virus) of lowly pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) virus. The phylogenetic analysis of the viral genomes showed that all four virus isolates clustered in the Eurasian clade of influenza viruses. The M gene of the viruses possessed the highest homology with highly pathogenic H5N1 influenza viruses. In addition, co-infection of H3N2 and H4N6 in the same farm was observed. And interestingly, we isolated two subtypes viruses (H3N2 and H4N6) and their progeny virus (H3N2) with evidence of genome reassortment from the same farm, in which the PB1 and PB2 gene segments of H4N6 replaced those of the H3N2 strain. The results of animal infection experiments showed that all the four isolated viruses were lowly pathogenic to chickens and not pathogenic to mice, which was consistent with the results of genetic analysis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
