Identification of a Triple-Reassortant H1N1 Swine Influenza Virus in a Southern China Pig.

ABSTRACT: We report here the complete genome sequence of a triple-reassortant H1N1 swine influenza virus strain, A/swine/Guangxi/BB1/2013 (H1N1) (GXBB1), isolated from a swine in the Guangxi Province of southern China in 2013. We obtained the complete genome sequence of the GXBB1 virus. Sequence analysis demonstrated that this H1N1 virus was a triple-reassortant swine influenza virus (SIV) whose genes originated from avian, human, and swine, respectively. Knowledge regarding the complete genome sequence of the GXBB1 virus will be useful for epidemiological surveillance.
