On the one hand, these viruses cause seasonal flu outbreaks in humans. On the other hand, they are a zoonotic infection that has the potential to cause a pandemic. The most important natural reservoir of IAVs are waterfowl. In this study, we investigated the occurrence of IAV in birds in the Republic of Buryatia (region in Russia). In 2020, a total of 3018 fecal samples were collected from wild migratory birds near Lake Baikal. Of these samples, 11 were found to be positive for the H13N8 subtype and whole-genome sequencing was performed on them. All samples contained the same virus with the designation A\/Unknown\/Buryatia\/Arangatui-1\/2020. To our knowledge, virus A\/Unknown\/Buryatia\/Arangatui-1\/2020 is the first representative of the H13N8 subtype collected on the territory of Russia, the sequence of which is available in the GenBank database. An analysis of reassortments based on the genome sequences of other known viruses has shown that A\/Unknown\/Buryatia\/Arangatui-1\/2020 arose as a result of reassortment. In addition, a reassortment most likely occurred several decades ago between the ancestors of the viruses recently collected in China, the Netherlands, the United States and Chile. The presence of such reassortment emphasizes the ongoing evolution of the H13N8 viruses distributed in Europe, North and East Asia, North and South America and Australia. This study underscores the importance of the continued surveillance and research of less-studied influenza subtypes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/v16040568","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,8]],"date-time":"2024-04-08T10:11:55Z","timestamp":1712571115000},"page":"568","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Abundant Intra-Subtype Reassortment Revealed in H13N8 Influenza Viruses"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7608-439X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sofia","family":"Feoktistova","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Research Center for Innovator and Emerging Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Technologies, 125315 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marya","family":"Sayganova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Research Center for Innovator and Emerging Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Technologies, 125315 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4748-6362","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kseniya","family":"Trutneva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Research Center for Innovator and Emerging Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Technologies, 125315 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Olga","family":"Glazova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Research Center for Innovator and Emerging Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Technologies, 125315 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Artem S.","family":"Blagodatski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal State Budget Institution of Science Institute of Theoretical and Experimental Biophysics, 142290 Pushchino, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3766-9395","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Liudmila","family":"Shevkova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Research Center for Innovator and Emerging Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Technologies, 125315 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anna","family":"Navoikova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Research Center for Innovator and Emerging Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Technologies, 125315 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuriy","family":"Anisimov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Baikalsky State Nature Biosphere Reserve, 671220 Tankhoi, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eugene","family":"Albert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Research Center for Innovator and Emerging Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Technologies, 125315 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Olga","family":"Mityaeva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Research Center for Innovator and Emerging Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Technologies, 125315 Moscow, Russia"},{"name":"Department of Fundamental Medicine, Lomonosov Moscow State University, 119992 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pavel","family":"Volchkov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal Research Center for Innovator and Emerging Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Technologies, 125315 Moscow, Russia"},{"name":"Department of Fundamental Medicine, Lomonosov Moscow State University, 119992 Moscow, Russia"},{"name":"The Moscow Clinical Scientific Center (MCSC) Named after A.S.
