Novel real-time PCR-based patho- and phylotyping of potentially zoonotic avian influenza A subtype H5 viruses at risk of incursion into Europe in 2017

Abstract: Since November 2016, Europe witnesses another wave of incursion of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) viruses of the Asian origin goose/Guangdong (gs/GD) lineage. Infections with H5 viruses of clade 2.3.4.4b affect wild bird and poultry populations. H5 viruses of clades 2.2, 2.3.1.2c and 2.3.4.4a were detected previously in Europe in 2006, 2010 and 2014. Clades 2.2.1.2 and 2.3.2.1.c are endemic in Egypt and Western Africa, respectively and have caused human fatalities. Evidence exists of their co-c… Show more

“…Pathological examination determined trauma as a cause of death; nevertheless, initial testing for avian influenza virus RNA revealed very high virus loads in mixed tissue homogenates (lung and gut tissue) with RT-qPCR Cq-values of RT-qPCR H5 Cq = 16.1 and RT-qPCR N8.2 Cq = 14.1. Primary sub-and pathotyping results achieved via qPCR [7] revealed a HPAIV H5N8 of clade 2.3.4.4b (RT-qPCR H5 HP 2344b DE Cq = 14.1). Subsequently, a severe necrotizing polioencephalitis, typical of H5N8 infection in waterfowl [8], was detected by histopathology, most likely causing disorientation and predisposing the goose to the traumatic event.…”

“…Shortly after, on 6 February 2020, chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus) from a small holding in the federal state of Baden-Wuerttemberg ( Figure 1) also tested positive for HPAIV H5N8 of clade 2.3.4.4b (RT-qPCR H5 HP 2344b DE Cq = 22.9-25.9; RT-qPCR N8.2 Cq = 22.2-25.4) following the same testing protocol as described [7]. In this case, RNA was extracted from swab samples.…”

“…Viral RNA was extracted using the QIAamp Viral RNA Mini Kit (Qiagen; Hilden, Germany), and RNA extracts were screened by real-time RT-PCR (RT-qPCR) for different respiratory pathogens: speciesspecific RT-qPCRs recognizing AAvV-1 independent of the pathotype included M- (Wise et al, 2004), NP- (Ramp et al, 2012) and L-gene (Fuller et al, 2010) specific tests. In addition, a pathotype-specific assay detecting virulent NDV (F(vir), (Wise et al, 2004)) was applied as well as tests for avian influenza virus (AIV) H5N1 (Naguib et al, 2017b), H9N2 (Monne et al, 2008), and infectious bronchits virus (IBV) (Naguib et al, 2017a). For detecting lentogenic vaccine type strains a specific probe F(vac) was generated using the F-specific primers of the RT-PCR described by Wise et al (2004).…”

“…However, due to the continuous circulation of H5Nx HPAI and other virus clades in avian species, it is very difficult to control viral transmission in poultry [3]. To effectively control and rapidly diagnose suspected infection on poultry farms, it is important to develop a rapid diagnostic assay for the simultaneous detection of different H5 HPAI viruses [20].…”
