Homo- and heterosubtypic immunity to low pathogenic avian influenza virus mitigates the clinical outcome of infection with highly pathogenic avian influenza h5n8 clade 2.3.4.4.b in captive mallards (anas platyrhynchos)

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

Three separate experiments were conducted in birds divided into 3 groups (I-III), with 15 mallards in each group. Mallards in all groups were observed for 14 days post-infection (dpi) with LPAIV and/or HPAIV. Weeks after Inoculation with LPAIV Day 0 HI ELISA HI ELISA Group I neg n/a ** Group II neg Group III neg * not tested, ** not applicable. The scientific groups that investigated the aspect of the prior immunity of mallards to LPAIV on the clinical outcome after infection with HPAIV H5 designed two different studies. Histopathological lesions in this . . .
