McCulley M, Dewar ML, Low YS, Wilson A, Jauregui R. High pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 virus detected in brown Skua using portable laboratory while at sea in Antarctica. Microbiol Resour Announc. 2025 Apr 17:e0004125
We report the draft genome sequence of a high pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b virus found in a brown skua (Stercorarius antarcticus) on Torgersen Island, which was detected and sequenced in situ using a portable laboratory while in Antarctica.
