Phylogenetic relationship of the H and N genes from the human virus isolate A/Hongkong/ 156/97 (HK97) and the corresponding genes from selected influenza A viruses.. Japan57, A/Japan/305/ 57 (H2N2); CkPen83, A/chick/Pennsylvania (H5N2); TyEng91, A/turkey/England/5092/91 (H5N1); SwNed-96, A/swine/Netherlands/609/96 (H1N1); Texas91, A/Texas/36/91 (H1N1); Wuhan95, A/Wuhan/359/95 (H3N2); USSR77, A/USSR/90/77 (H1N1); ParUl73, A/parrot/Ulster/73 (H7N1); Bangk79, A/Bangkok/1/79 (H3N2). Sequences were from GenBank or nucleotide sequence analysis using the Dye Deoxy Terminator kit (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA). Alignment was done with 827 nucleotides (38-865) of the H genes and 200 nucleotides (1-200) of the N genes by PILEUP (GCG, Madison, WI). Phylogenetic trees were constructed in Phylip (Felsenstein, Seattle, WA) using DNAPARS and DRAWGRAM.

Our analyses clearly confirmed that the virus is of the H5N1 subtype (Fig. 1).
