Influenza A viruses exhibit broad host tropism, infecting multiple species including humans, avian species, and swine. Swine influenza virus (SIV), while primarily circulating in porcine populations, demonstrates zoonotic potential with sporadic human infections. In this investigation, we identified two H1N1 subtype swine influenza A virus strains designated A/swine/China/SD6591/2019(H1N1) (abbreviated SD6591) and A/swine/China/SD6592/2019(H1N1) (abbreviated SD6592) in Shandong Province, China. The GenBank accession numbers of the SD6591 viral gene segments are PV464931-PV464938, and the GenBank accession numbers corresponding to each of the eight SD6592 viral gene segments are PV464939-PV464946. Phylogenetic and recombination analyses suggest potential evolutionary differences between the isolates. SD6591 displayed a unique triple-reassortant genotype: comparative nucleotide homology assessments demonstrated that the PB2, PB1, NP, NA, HA, and NEP genes shared the highest similarity with classical swine-origin H1N1 viruses. In contrast, SD6592 maintained genomic conservation with previously characterized H1N1 swine strains, although neither of these two isolates exhibited significant intrasegmental recombination events. Through comprehensive sequence analysis of these H1N1 SIVs, this study provides preliminary insights into their evolutionary history and underscores the persistent risk of cross-species transmission at the human–swine interface. These findings establish an essential foundation for enhancing national SIV surveillance programs and informing evidence-based prevention strategies against emerging influenza threats.
