Figure 1. Phylogenetic relationships among H5 hemagglutinin (HA) genes from H5N1 avian influenza viruses and their geographic distribution. Viral isolates collected before and during the 2004–2005 outbreak in Asia and selected ancestors were included in the analysis. (Nucleotide sequence accession numbers are shown in the Appendix Table). HA clades 1, 1´, and 2, discussed in the text, are colored in blue, red, and green fonts, respectively. Virus names in boldface denote isolates from human infections. Phylogenetic trees were inferred from nucleotide sequences by the neighbor-joining method with A/chicken/Scotland/56 genes as outgroup (not shown, denoted by arrowhead). Bootstrap analysis values >90% are shown. A) HA gene tree phylogeny was based on the coding region of the segment. Presence of a motif for glycosylation in HA is indicated as A156T by an arrow at the root of clade 1 and a diamond for other clades (Table 1). Stars denote absence of 1 arginine residue at the polybasic cleavage site, which starts at position 325 of HA1. Isolates to which ferret antisera were made for antigenic analyses are boxed (Table 2). B) Geographic distribution of H5N1 in east Asia: blue denotes countries reporting infections with clade 1 H5N1 in humans and birds (solid) or in birds only (hatched). Green denotes countries reporting bird infections with clade 2 H5N1 viruses. 1Members of the World Health Organization
