ABSTRACT

The cases of human infections with H10N8 viruses identified in late 2013 and early 2014 in Jiangxi, China, have raised concerns over the origin, prevalence, and development of these viruses in this region. Our long-term influenza surveillance of poultry and migratory birds in southern China in the past 12 years showed that H10 influenza viruses have been introduced from migratory to domestic ducks over several winter seasons at sentinel duck farms at Poyang Lake, where domestic ducks share their water body with overwintering migratory birds. H10 viruses were never detected in terrestrial poultry in our survey areas until August 2013, when they were identified at live-poultry markets in Jiangxi. Since then, we have isolated 124 H10N8 or H10N6 viruses from chickens at local markets, revealing an ongoing outbreak. Phylogenetic analysis of H10 and related viruses showed that the chicken H10N8 viruses were generated through multiple reassortments between H10 and N8 viruses from domestic ducks and the enzootic chicken H9N2 viruses. These chicken reassortant viruses were highly similar to the human isolate, indicating that market chickens were the source of human infection. Recently, the H10 viruses further reassorted, apparently with H5N6 vi-ruses, and generated an H10N6 variant. The emergence and prevalence of H10 viruses in chickens and the occurrence of human infections provide direct evidence of the threat from the current influenza ecosystem in China.

IMPORTANCE

After the outbreak of avian-origin H7N9 influenza viruses in China, fatal human infections with a novel H10N8 virus were re-ported. Utilizing data from 12 years of influenza surveillance in southern China, we showed that H10 viruses were regularly in-troduced by migratory ducks to domestic ducks on Poyang Lake, a major aggregative site of migratory birds in Asia. The H10 viruses were maintained and amplified in domestic ducks and then transmitted to chickens and reassorted with enzootic H9N2 viruses, leading to an outbreak and human infections at live-poultry markets. The emergence of the H10N8 virus, following a pathway similar to that of the recent H7N9 virus, highlights the role of domestic ducks and the current influenza ecosystem in China that facilitates influenza viruses moving from their reservoir hosts through the live-poultry system to cause severe conse-quences for public health.

D

irect interspecies transmissions of avian influenza viruses (AIVs) to humans repeatedly occurred in the last 2 decades, especially in regions where AIVs have become established or en-zootic in poultry (1–4). Lowly pathogenic AIVs do not usually cause explicit symptoms in poultry, and unless ongoing surveil-lance is in place, human infections may occur before an outbreak in poultry is recognized, as was the case with the recent H7N9 viruses (5,6).

It was through hospital-based surveillance of patients with se-vere pneumonia in China that a novel H10N8 AIV was identified in Nanchang, Jiangxi, with three cases occurring between Novem-ber 2013 and February 2014 (7,8). The virus isolated from the initial patient was a reassortant, with its internal gene complex derived from the H9N2 viruses enzootic in chickens in China and its surface genes related to those found in ducks and wild birds (7, 9). This is similar to the H7N9 viruses that emerged in early 2013 (5,6). The patients with H10N8 infections were known to have a history of visiting live-poultry markets (LPMs) or exposure to live poultry before disease onset (7,8), suggesting that market chick-ens may be the source of human infections (9,10).

H10 subtype influenza viruses from waterfowl have

occasion-ally infected mammals. H10N7 viruses were found to cause spo-radic human infection cases in Egypt in 2004 (11) and in Australia in 2010 (12). An H10N4 outbreak in mink was observed in 1984 (13), and an H10N5 virus was detected in swine in 2008 (14). All of these were short-term and isolated events. H10 viruses have never

become established and caused continuous infections in mamma-lian species.

Continuing human infections with H7N9 AIVs (5,6) and the enzootic status of H5N1 (15) and H9N2 (16) AIVs indicate that the influenza ecosystem in China can facilitate the emergence and persistence of influenza viruses that are able to infect humans. Whether the H10N8 viruses infecting humans will persist remains to be explored. The findings of our systematic surveillance in six provinces of southern China from 2002 to 2014 showed that H10 viruses were regularly found in wild and domestic ducks but were never identified in terrestrial poultry until August 2013. Since then, and prior to the appearance of human infections, H10N8 viruses were frequently isolated from chickens at LPMs in Nan-chang.

How H10 viruses evolved in wild and domestic birds over the past decades, how the current influenza ecosystem in China led to the genesis of the H10N8 virus infecting humans, and how these H10 viruses are continuing to develop remain to be fully ad-dressed. To examine these questions and the potential conse-quences of the emergence of H10 viruses in Nanchang, detailed analyses of the genomic sequences of 219 H10 and 124 related viruses isolated in our surveillance network during the last 12 years were undertaken. The H10N8 virus that infected a human resulted from the interaction of wild birds with domestic ducks in the farming system of China, leading to the transfer of H10 and N8 genes to the markets and reassortment with enzootic H9N2 vi-ruses. The transfer of the chicken viruses to humans was coinci-dent with H10 virus outbreaks in LPMs. The continuing presence of the H10 virus in markets led to it acquiring an N6 neuramini-dase (NA), again demonstrating the role of LPMs and the current influenza ecosystem of China in generating and perpetuating in-fluenza viruses that pose threats to public health.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Active surveillance in southern China.Ongoing surveillance of influenza viruses in Jiangxi province has been conducted since 2002 at live-poultry

markets (LPMs) in the capital city Nanchang (primarily from either the major wholesale or retail market), two sentinel duck farms (farms raising only domestic ducks, which share their water body with migratory water-fowl), and uninhabited islets in Poyang Lake, a major overwinter aggre-gation site for migratory waterfowl in Asia (Table 1). Simultaneous sam-pling in islets and sentinel duck farms at Poyang Lake can be used to monitor the transmission of viruses between migratory waterfowl and domestic ducks.

Migratory bird samples were obtained from fresh fecal droppings col-lected at isolated, publicly accessible islets on the lake from mid-October to the next March without disturbing the birds. Cloacal samples were taken year-round from sentinel ducks, approximately every 10 days. Sam-pling at LPMs in Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Jiangxi, and Yunnan was carried out weekly from 2002 to 2014. Paired oropharyngeal and cloacal swabs were taken from apparently healthy birds at the mar-kets. Surveillance in farms and markets was conducted according to pro-cedures and guidelines in theWHO Manual on Animal Influenza Diagno-sis and Surveillance(17).

Sample swabs were collected in vials with transport medium (medium 199 with antibiotics) and kept in cool boxes before being sent to the laboratory, where they were inoculated in 9- to 11-day-old embryonated chicken eggs for 48 to 72 h at 36°C to isolate influenza viruses (5). Hem-agglutinin (HA)-positive isolates were further subtyped by hemHem-agglutinin inhibition and neuraminidase inhibition assays using a panel of reference antisera, as described previously (5).

Full-genome sequencing.Samples were selected for sequencing as

described below. Sequencing was performed by using a Roche 454 Ge-nome Sequencer Junior with sample preparation according to the manu-facturer’s protocols, giving⬃150⫻coverage of the influenza virus ge-nome on average. Original reads from 454 sequencing were assembled into contigs by using overlapping regions of 40 nucleotides with⬎90% identity with the 454de novoassembler. Contigs were identified as influ-enza A virus sequences by using BLAST against the influinflu-enza A virus sequences from GenBank. The contigs were then assembled with Laser-gene, version 9.0 (DNAStar). For samples having mixed infections, based on manual curation, if two copies of an internal gene segment had⬍97% identity in the nucleotide sequence, they were separated and named mix-a and mix-b. Otherwise, the gene was marked as “mixed” with degenerate nucleotide codes and excluded from further analysis.

Data set preparation and alignment.Nucleotide sequences generated in this study were combined with all publicly available sequences of avian influenza A viruses in GenBank (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/GenBank) and H10N8 and H7N9 human virus sequences from GISAID (http: //gisaid.org/). Sequences with⬎5 ambiguous nucleotides, or⬍70% of the length of the coding region, or that were mosaic (18) were excluded. Sequences were aligned by using MUSCLE v3.5 (19), with manual adjust-ments.

Phylogenetic analysis.A “panoramic” maximum likelihood (ML)

phylogeny of each gene segment was first constructed by using the rapid hill-climbing search method and the GTRGAMMA nucleotide substitu-tion model in RAxML v7.6.8 (20). The Eurasian lineage that contains the H10N8 human and chicken isolates was retained, except for the N8 gene, where the major North American lineage was kept. The number of se-quences of each segment was reduced to⬃1,000 by keeping those se-quences most closely related to the H10N8 viruses. They were then built into ML phylogenies by 100 independent tree searches using RAxML v7.6.8. The robustness of the topologies was evaluated with the Shimod-aira-Hasegawa approximate likelihood ratio test (21) on the best trees. The smaller ML trees shown inFig. 2and3were created with PhyML v3.0 (22), with bootstrap support values obtained from 1,000 pseudorepli-cates.

Molecular dating.A set of closely related viruses (⬃100 sequences for each gene) was chosen for molecular clock estimation. The time-scaled maximum clade credibility phylogenies of the H10 virus segments were inferred by using a relaxed molecular clock model with an uncorrelated log-normal distribution (23) and virus sampling dates accurate to the day of a year. The SRD06 nucleotide substitution model (24) and the coales-cent Bayesian skyline model (25) were incorporated into the Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method implemented in BEAST v1.7.5 (26). Multiple independent MCMC runs were performed and as-sessed for consistency. They were combined to give a total chain length of 2⫻108to 6108steps, with sampling at every 1,000 steps. Convergence

of relevant parameters was assessed by effective sample sizes of⬎200 in Tracer v1.5 (http://tree.bio.ed.ac.uk/software/tracer/).

Nucleotide sequence accession numbers.Sequences generated in this

study are available in GenBank under accession numbersKP284874to KP288026.

RESULTS

Prevalence of H10 AIV in aquatic birds.From 2002 to 2014, a total of 560 H10 AIVs were isolated from migratory or domestic ducks in six provinces in southern China. Of these, 539 were iso-lated in Jiangxi from migratory ducks (n⫽27) at islets in Poyang Lake, sentinel domestic ducks (n⫽407) at farms on Poyang Lake, and domestic ducks (n ⫽105) at LPMs in Nanchang (40 km southwest of Poyang Lake) (Table 1). In contrast, in the remaining five provinces, only 21 H10 viruses were isolated from domestic ducks, and 3 were isolated from geese. Transmissions of H10 vi-ruses from migratory birds to sentinel domestic ducks in Jiangxi were observed in the winters of 2005 to 2006, 2008 to 2009, and 2012 to 2013, with further transmissions to domestic ducks at LPMs (Table 1). Thus, Poyang Lake, a major aggregative site of migratory birds in Asia, is a major source of H10 viruses in south-ern China, while sentinel domestic ducks played a key role in spreading the H10 viruses.

Emergence and outbreak of H10 AIV in chickens in Jiangxi. The H10 subtype had never been detected in terrestrial poultry before August 2013 in our surveillance areas. Up to April 2014, a total of 124 H10 viruses were isolated from chickens at LPMs in Nanchang (Table 1andFig. 1). Sixty-seven H10N8 viruses were obtained over 13 sampling occasions from August 2013 to January 2014, and 57 H10N6 viruses were isolated on 4 sampling occasions in March and April 2014 (Fig. 1). All chicken H10 viruses were detected from oropharyngeal swabs, suggesting that these chicken H10 viruses mainly replicated in and were shed through the upper respiratory and/or oral tract. Nearly one-half (n ⫽ 33) of the chicken H10N8 isolates were detected as mixed infections with H9N2 viruses. Of the H10N6 isolates, six were detected as mixed infections with H7N9 viruses, and one was mixed with an H9N2 virus.

obtained. These were H10 chicken isolates, 23 migratory duck isolates, 33 sentinel duck isolates, and 39 viruses from domestic ducks at LPMs (Table 1). Additionally, 68 H9N2 viruses and 56 N8 or N6 viruses isolated from 2013 to 2014 were also sequenced. All the sequences were analyzed along with those of the human H10N8 virus (A/Jiangxi/Donghu-346/2013 [JX346]) and other closely related sequences from publicly available databases.

Phylogenetic analysis of the H10 HA gene showed that there was a recent introduction of H10 viruses from migratory ducks to domestic ducks in Jiangxi from 2012 to 2013 and three earlier introductions in 2003, early 2005, and 2008 (Fig. 2A, asterisks; see also Fig. S1A in the supplemental material, asterisks). Only a single introduction of an H10 virus from domestic ducks to chickens was observed. The HA genes of all the chicken H10N8 viruses isolated at LPMs in Nanchang formed a monophyletic group (the JX346-like sublineage) together with the human H10N8 isolate, consis-tent with avian-to-human transmission of the virus at the LPM (Fig. 2A). The chicken H10N6 viruses that were isolated subse-quently also had HA genes belonging to this sublineage, suggest-ing that N6 was acquired by a reassortment of the H10N8 viruses. The N8 gene phylogeny showed that all the NA genes of the chicken H10N8 viruses formed a monophyletic group (the JX346-like sublineage), with⬎99.5% nucleotide sequence identity to the human isolate. N8 genes from Jiangxi domestic duck isolates with mixed infections involving multiple subtypes were the immediate outlier group of the chicken H10N8 viruses (Fig. 2B; see also Fig. S1B in the supplemental material), suggesting that frequent coin-fections and reassortment in ducks may contribute to the assem-bly of novel HA and NA combinations and may be associated with interspecies transmission to chickens. These viruses were derived from the North American lineage as one of the several interconti-nental transmissions of the N8 segment to the Eurasian gene pool that subsequently passed from migratory birds in eastern Asia to domestic ducks in Jiangxi (Fig. 2B, triangles; see also Fig. S1B in the supplemental material, triangle).

The N8 genes of the duck H10N8 viruses isolated at sentinel duck farms on Poyang Lake in February 2013 were genetically distant from those of the human and chicken viruses and origi-nated from a separate intercontinental introduction (Fig. 2B; see also Fig. S1B in the supplemental material). Even though H3N8 viruses have been the most predominant among duck N8 viruses, only one chicken H3 virus (H3N8, isolated in February 2013) was identified in Jiangxi (Fig. 2B; see also Fig. S1B in the supplemental material). This chicken N8 gene was more closely related to those of the duck H10N8 viruses isolated at the sentinel duck farms than to the N8 genes of the JX346-like sublineage that led to the human infection.

The N6 genes of the chicken H10N6 viruses isolated from Ji-angxi LPMs were closely related to those of H6N6 viruses estab-lished in domestic ducks in southern China (27). They appear to be directly derived from H5N6 viruses isolated from multiple types of poultry from late 2013 to early 2014, which acquired the N6 gene containing an 11-amino-acid stalk deletion from H6N6 viruses of ducks in southern China (Fig. 2C; see also Fig. S1C in the supplemental material) (27). This indicates a recent reassortment, probably between the H10N8 and H5N6 viruses in poultry. Only H10N6 viruses have been detected in chickens at LPMs since March 2014, suggesting that the N8 gene may have been replaced. The internal genes of chicken H10N8 and H10N6 viruses were derived mainly from the locally enzootic chicken H9N2 virus

lin-eage (Ck/Zhejiang/HJ/2007, ZJ-HJ-07 linlin-eage) (Fig. 3; ZJ-HJ-07; see also Fig. S2 in the supplemental material), as were the internal genes of the human H10N8 and the recent H7N9 viruses. For each internal gene, the majority of the H10N8 viruses, including that from the human case, formed a monophyletic clade (JX346-like) (Fig. 3; see also Fig. S2 in the supplemental material). PB1 and PB2 gene segments derived from Eurasian gene pool viruses were com-monly identified in the H10N8 viruses, leading to four different genotypes (Fig. 4; see also Tables S1 and S2 in the supplemental material) before January 2014. These segments were then replaced by those from H9N2 viruses (Fig. 3; see also Fig. S2A and S2B and Tables S1 and S2 in the supplemental material), indicating con-tinual reassortments between H10N8 and H9N2 viruses. In the case of a few chicken H10 viruses, the internal genes clustered with those from the first wave of H7N9 viruses (Fig. 3; see also Fig. S2 in the supplemental material), suggesting that H10 viruses might have reassorted in chickens with H7N9 viruses or with H9N2 vi-ruses that carried H7N9-like internal genes.

Dating the emergence of the H10N8 viruses.The times of the interspecies transmission and reassortment events leading to the emergence of the chicken H10N8 viruses were estimated by mo-lecular dating (see Fig. S3 and S4 in the supplemental material). The H10 gene was transferred from ducks to chickens in April to June 2013, based on estimates for the time of divergence (tDiv) from the duck lineages to the time of the most recent common ancestor (tMRCA) of the chicken viruses. Similarly, the transfer of the N8 segment from ducks to chickens occurred between Octo-ber 2012 and July 2013 (see Fig. S4 in the supplemental material). For the six internal genes, the tMRCAs of the JX346-like sublin-eage, containing both H10N8 and H9N2 viruses, were estimated to range from January to September 2013 (see Fig. S4 in the sup-plemental material). Thus, the generation of the H10N8 viruses in chickens appears to be a recent event that most probably occurred in the middle of 2013.

Molecular characterization of H10N8 and H10N6 viruses.All the H10 chicken viruses and the human isolate had an HA Q220R substitution (residue 210, H3 numbering) relative to the duck viruses. This residue is located in the trimer interface of the HA protein (28). This substitution was shown to increase the pH of virus fusion and viral replication of an H3N2 virus in murine tracheal epithelial cells and lungs of mice (29). Deletions in the stalk region of NA are frequently found in viruses that have be-come established in terrestrial poultry (30,31); however, deletions were not seen in N8 of the chicken isolates. The N6 proteins con-tain a stalk deletion at residues 59 to 69, which was originally identified in H6N6 viruses established in domestic ducks in south-ern China (27) and the H5N6 viruses identified in 2013 to 2014. None of the H10N8 chicken viruses carry the mammalian adap-tation marker substitution E627K or D701N in the PB2 protein. However, PB2 of the human case had a mixture of 627E and 627K, with 627K predominating as the infection progressed (7).

DISCUSSION

The emergence of the H10N8 viruses and the associated human infections highlight the continual threat posed by the influenza ecosystem of China (Fig. 5). Our findings demonstrate how key aspects of the current influenza ecosystem facilitate the emergence and development of novel influenza viruses in the region, as oc-curred with the highly pathogenic H5N1 and H9N2 viruses and the recently emerged H7N9 viruses (5,6,32,33).

Introductions of influenza viruses from migratory waterfowl (the natural reservoir) through domestic ducks to other poultry were frequently observed in the last decades (34,35). As⬎65% of the global population of domestic ducks are bred in China (FAOSTAT [http://faostat.fao.org/]), which forms the largest nat-ural host population for influenza viruses in the world, these birds have become the major source of introductions of influenza vi-ruses to poultry. In this study,⬎90% of the H10 viruses from ducks in our surveillance were isolated from domestic ducks in Jiangxi, especially from sentinel ducks that share their water body with migratory birds at Poyang Lake (Table 1).

Domestic ducks play a central role in the development of newly introduced viruses in the poultry system by allowing the viruses to spread within their large and highly dense population, by main-taining the local genetic diversity of the viruses through reassort-ment with other subtypes, and by carrying viruses to LPMs (Fig. 5). After domestic ducks at sentinel duck farms on Poyang Lake acquired H10 viruses similar to those from migratory birds at the lake, related viruses appeared at LPMs in the nearby city of Nan-chang. This pattern has occurred previously with H10 viruses dur-ing the winter seasons of 2003 to 2004, 2004 to 2005, and 2008 to 2009, although not all introductions persisted or transmitted through the entire chain (Fig. 1and2AandTable 1).

In LPMs, the interaction of different types of poultry facilitates interspecies transmissions from domestic ducks to terrestrial poultry. In the emergence of H10N8 viruses, either separate duck H10 and N8 viruses or a precursor H10N8 virus was introduced to

chickens, followed by reassortment with H9N2 viruses, leading to the genesis of the H10N8 virus (Fig. 4), which mirrors the scenario observed in the H7N9 outbreak. The subsequent prevalence and outbreak of the novel H10N8 viruses at LPMs in Nanchang be-came the source of human infections. The existence of distinct genotypes of H10 viruses in chickens, which changed over time, and the replacement of the NA subtype (Fig. 4) suggest that these viruses are subject to ongoing selection and adaptation in this new host species.

Introductions of viruses from aquatic birds to terrestrial poul-try occur in most regions of the world (36, 37). However, the current influenza ecosystem of China, associated with the pres-ence of multiple subtypes of influenza viruses enzootic in terres-trial poultry, the huge poultry population size and density, the combination of industrial and mixed-animal backyard farming practices, and the widespread LPM system, provides a unique set of conditions that favor the emergence and genesis of novel vi-ruses. This has been repeatedly demonstrated by the emergence of H5N1, H9N2, and the recent H7N9 and H10N8 viruses in China. All these factors make China a unique influenza epicenter for gen-erating novel viruses with pandemic potential.

This study highlights each of the steps by which the H10N8 virus was generated and evolved (Fig. 4and5). Currently, the H10

viruses related to the human infections have been detected only in Jiangxi, reflecting the early phase of an epizootic. If proper mea-sures are implemented at this stage, it will be possible to eradicate these viruses completely. However, the long-term enzootic status of H9N2 and H5N1 viruses and the recent development of H7N9 viruses in China have demonstrated the inefficacy of current dis-ease control systems.

To reduce the emergence of novel viruses and control current enzootic influenza viruses, revolutionary changes to the entire structure of poultry farming practices, LPMs, and the poultry dis-tribution system are needed. Otherwise, H10N8 or H10N6 viruses are likely to disseminate to neighboring regions and follow the trajectory of the H7N9 outbreak. Coupling surveillance with changes in the management of LPMs will provide a higher level of protection against the potential emergence of a pandemic influ-enza virus from poultry in China.

FIG 5The current ecosystem of avian influenza viruses in China. The

diver-sity of avian influenza viruses is maintained primarily in the classic gene pool viruses of wild waterfowl (green circle). Industrial poultry farming (blue and pink circles) largely separates species, but wild and domestic ducks may inter-act and transmit viruses. Trading in live-poultry markets (funnel) brings dif-ferent types of poultry together to facilitate the sharing and mixing of viruses, favoring the emergence of novel AIVs and interspecies transmission of viruses (arrows). The markets are the major contact point between humans and live poultry, and this leads to the transmission of viruses to humans. Improper management may lead to the transfer of viruses from chickens in LPMs to those in farms. The stroke weight of an arrow indicates the frequency of trans-missions between different hosts, arrowheads show the direction, and dashed lines indicate sporadic transmissions.
