Yet, only 152 Vietnamese H6 virus sequences were available in GISAID (Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data) prior to this study with the most recent sequences being from 2018. Through surveillance in Vietnamese live bird markets from 2018 to 2021, we identified 287 samples containing one or several H6 viruses and other influenza A virus subtypes, demonstrating a high rate of co-infections among birds in Vietnamese live bird markets. For the 132 H6 samples with unique influenza virus sequences, we conducted phylogenetic and genetic analyses. Most of the H6 viruses were similar to each other and closely related to other H6 viruses; however, signs of reassortment with other avian influenza viruses were evident. At the genetic level, the Vietnamese H6 viruses characterized in our study encode a single basic amino acid at the HA cleavage site, consistent with low pathogenicity in poultry. The Vietnamese H6 viruses analyzed here possess an amino acid motif in HA that confers binding to both avian- and human-type receptors on host cells, consistent with their ability to infect mammals. The frequent detection of H6 viruses in Vietnamese live bird markets, the high rate of co-infections of birds with different influenza viruses, and the dual receptor-binding specificity of these viruses warrant their close monitoring for potential infection and spread among mammals.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/v16030367","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,27]],"date-time":"2024-02-27T05:20:32Z","timestamp":1709011232000},"page":"367","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Avian H6 Influenza Viruses in Vietnamese Live Bird Markets during 2018\u20132021"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Lizheng","family":"Guan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Influenza Research Institute, Department of Pathobiological Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison, Madison, WI 53711, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lavanya","family":"Babujee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Influenza Research Institute, Department of Pathobiological Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison, Madison, WI 53711, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2509-6219","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Robert","family":"Presler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Influenza Research Institute, Department of Pathobiological Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison, Madison, WI 53711, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0001-8203","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"David","family":"Pattinson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Influenza Research Institute, Department of Pathobiological Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison, Madison, WI 53711, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hang Le Khanh","family":"Nguyen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vu Mai Phuong","family":"Hoang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mai Quynh","family":"Le","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Harm van","family":"Bakel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Genetics and Genomic Services, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY 10029, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshihiro","family":"Kawaoka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Influenza Research Institute, Department of Pathobiological Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison, Madison, WI 53711, USA"},{"name":"Division of Virology, Department of Microbiology and Immunology, and International Research Center for Infectious Diseases, The Institute of Medical Science, University of Tokyo, Tokyo 108-8639, Japan"},{"name":"Research Center for Global Viral Diseases, National Center for Global Health and Medicine, Tokyo 162-8655, Japan"},{"name":"Infection and Advanced Research (UTOPIA) Center, The University of Tokyo Pandemic Preparedness, Tokyo 108-8639, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gabriele","family":"Neumann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Influenza Research Institute, Department of Pathobiological Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin\u2014Madison, Madison, WI 53711, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e0137023","DOI":"10.1128\/jvi.01370-23","article-title":"Global distribution, receptor binding, and cross-species transmission of H6 influenza viruses: Risks and implications for humans","volume":"97","author":"Yan","year":"2023","journal-title":"J.
