Then the homology, the genetic evolution and the mutations of important amino acid were analyzed by bioinformation softwares. Results:The positive rate of AIV was 52.2% and the positive rate of H9N2 was 83.7% in LPM environment. The homology between nucleotides of the HA gene of 21 strains ranged from 91.6% to 100.0%, and the homology between amino acids of the HA gene ranged from 91.0% to 100.0%. All strains belonged to Y280 sublineage and G57 genotype. Key sites analysis showed that they had a common motif PSRSSRGLF and LSRSSRGLF at the cleavage site, which indicated that they were lentogenic and low pathogenic strains. Mutations H191N, E198T/A and Q234L at the receptor binding sites in the HA was found in 21 strains, while indicated the viruses had the potential to bind human-like receptor. The analysis results of glycosylation motifs showed that all 21 strains had 7 glycosylation sites, but had a site deletion at amino acid site 218 and an addition at 313.There was no significant mutation in the key site compared with the human infected strains. Conclusions:The detection rate of AIV in LPM environment in Guizhou province was high, and the pollution was very serious, and H9N2 subtype is the main subtype, All H9N2 subtype AIVs belonged to Y280 sublineage and G57 genotype, and they were low pathogenic avian influenza viruses in Guizhou province, but the genetic gap were widening and mutations of key amino acid site might enhance susceptibility and pathogenicity to human beings. Hence, It is necessary to strengthen the surveillance of molecular characteristic variation of H9N2 subtype AIV.

Objective To investigate the molecular characteristics of H5 subtype avian influenza viruses (AIV) in Weining, Guizhou Province. Methods Nine representative strains were randomly select-ed from H5 subtype AIV that were identified by real-time PCR in Weining, Guizhou Province from 2015 to 2017. Nucleic acid was extracted from each sample and hemagglutinin (HA) genes were amplified and then sequenced. Homology, genetic evolution and the sites related to pathogenicity, receptor binding regions as well as potential glycosylation of H5 AIV were analyzed by bioinformation software. Results Homology analysis revealed that there was 96. 1%-99. 9% and 95. 7%-100% similarity among the nine strains in nu-cleotide and amino acid of HA gene, respectively. These strains belonged to two branches, H5-1 and H5-2. The cleavage site motifs were PLREKRRKR↓GLF for five strains in H5-1 branch and PQRERRRKR↓GLF for four strains in H5-2 branch, which made them high pathogenic. QSG and QRG at the key receptor bind-ing sites were found in H5-1 and H5-2 branch strains, respectively. They were responsible for receptor bind-ing specificity of AIV. Mutations of 138Q, 139G and 53K were all detected in the nine strains. 129K, 189T, 140K and 282V mutations were discovered in the five strains of H5-1 branch, while 189N, 140M and 282I mutations were found in the four strains of H5-2 branch. Results of the glycosylation motif analysis showed that six sites were conservative, but there was an addition of 124NHT site in two strains of H5-2 branch isolated in 2017. Conclusion Two high pathogenic H5 subtypes of AIV could be epidemic in Wein-ing, Guizhou Province during 2015 to 2017. Although H5 subtype AIV did not possess specific receptor binding regions like human influenza viruses, they were in continuous variation with an increase in glycosyla-tion motifs, which might enhance their virulence and pathogenicity to human beings. Hence, surveillance and study on the molecular properties of H5 subtype AIV should be strengthened.

Objective:
To investigate the molecular characteristics and tracing of the hemagglutinin (HA) gene, and to analyze the risk of human infection with influenza virus A (H7N9) in Guizhou Province, so that to provide evidence for the prevention and control of highly pathogenic avian influenza A (H7N9).
Methods:
Nucleic acids of 5 strains of H7N9 including 1 sample of the patient′s nasopharyngeal swab and 4 samples of the live poultry market (LPM) environment were extracted and HA genes were amplified and sequenced. Then the homology, genetic evolution and the pivotal sites related to receptor binding regions, pathogenicity and potential glycosylation of the avian influenza A (H7N9) viruses were analyzed by a series of bioinformatics softwares.
Results:
Homology analysis revealed that the homologies of nucleotide and amino-acid of the HA gene of H7N9 strains from the patient and LPM in Weining County, Guizhou Province were 99.8% and 99.6%, respectively, while those of 4 strains from LPM were both 100%. The homologies of nucleotide and amino-acid of the HA gene of H7N9 strains were the highest with the strain of A/Guangxi/5/2017 isolated from a Guangxi infected patient (99.7%-99.9% and 99.4%-99.8%, respectively), while those with the strain isolated from LPMs environment at the end of 2016 (A/Environment/Guangdong/C16283222/2016) were 99.0%-99.2% and 98.9%-99.2%, respectively. However, the homologies of nucleotide and amino-acid of the HA gene of H7N9 strains with A/Shanghai/2/2013 recommended by world health organization and the candidate vaccine strain A/Anhui/1/2013 were 96.8%-97.0% and 95.8%-96.2%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the 5 strains had the nearest genetic distance to the strain A/Guangxi/5/2017. All the 5 strains cleavage site sequences of HA protein showed mutation of PEVPKRKRTAR↓GLF, and they were highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses mutant strains, which all had mutation of G186V at the receptor binding sites of HA gene, while no Q226L mutation was found. All 5 strains had new mutation of A363S, and new mutations of R56K and I297V were only found in the strain isolated from the patient. Among the five potential glycosylation motifs in the HA, only 421NWT and 493NNT had variation of the position post shift.
Conclusions
All the 5 H7N9 strains isolated in Weining County, Guizhou Province are highly pathogenic avian influenza mutative viruses. The current candidate vaccine may not provide a very good protection. The mutations of cleavage site of HA protein, G186V as well as other new mutation sites of HA may enhance the susceptibility and pathogenicity to human beings.
