An H8N4 subtype avian A influenza virus was isolated from the aquatic birds in some live bird markets when we surveyed the ecology of avian influenza in East China for more than four years and identified by specific RT-PCR.The eight full-length genes,including 5′ and 3′ ends of H8N4 subtype avian influenza virus(A/duck/Yangzhou/02/2005) were amplified by using the universal primers.The amplified segments were cloned into the pGEM-T easy vector,respectively. The results showed that each of the eight gene cDNA...
