Migrating wild birds are considered natural reservoirs of influenza viruses and serve as a potential source novel strains in humans livestock. During routine avian surveillance conducted eastern China, H5N8 ( SH ‐9) reassortant virus was isolated from mallard duck China. blast analysis revealed that the HA , NA PB 1, PA NP M segments ‐9 were most closely related to corresponding A/duck/Jiangsu/k1203/2010 (H5N8). The preferentially recognized avian‐like receptors highly pathogenic mice. Our...
Abstract Ongoing wind energy developments play a key role in mitigating the global effects of climate change and crisis; however, they have complex ecological consequences for many flying animals. The Yellow Sea coast is considered as an bottleneck migratory waterbirds along East Asian–Australasian flyway (EAAF), also important farm base China. However, large-scale onshore farms EAAF on multidimensional waterbird diversity, how to mitigate these effects, remain unclear. Here we examined...
This paper aims to evaluate the success of coastal wetland restoration by quantifying waterbird community composition at three restored sites and on one natural wetland, which served as a reference site, from September 2011 May 2012 in Chongming Dongtan wetlands China. The Shannon–Wiener diversity index was calculated describe habitat four study sites. Significant differences heterogeneity species group diversity, richness, density were observed sites, but significant difference among...
Abstract Understanding the mechanisms of how urbanization influences evolution native species is vital for urban wildlife ecology and conservation in Anthropocene. With thousands years agriculture‐dominated historical followed by 40 intensive rapid urbanization, Shanghai provides an ideal environment to study two‐stage process indigenous wildlife, especially anuran species. Therefore, this study, we used mitochondrial Cyt‐b gene, microsatellite (SSR), single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)...
From 2016 to 2018, surveillance of influenza A viruses in wild birds was conducted Shanghai, located at the East Asian–Australian flyway, China. total 5112 samples from 51 species were collected three different wetlands. The three-year prevalence among them 8.8%, as assessed using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods, and higher Anseriformes (26.3%) than Charadriiformes (2.3%) other orders (2.4%) Chongmin should be key monitoring group future efforts. peak April September, bird...
Abstract Wind farms offer a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels and can mitigate their negative effects on climate change. However, wind may have impacts birds. The East China Coast forms key part of the Asian–Australasian Flyway, it is crucial region for energy development in China. despite ducks being dominant animal taxon along winter considered as particularly vulnerable farms, potential duck populations remain unclear. We therefore assessed abundance, distribution, habitat use at...
Abstract In late 2020, we detected 32 highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N8) viruses in migratory ducks Shanghai, China. Phylogenetic analysis of 5 representative isolates identified 2 sublineages clade 2.3.4.4b. Each sublineage formed separate clusters with from East Asia and Europe.
Summary Understanding the factors that affect nesting success of threatened birds is essential in designing effective conservation strategies. Here we compare Reed Parrotbill Paradoxornis heudei annually harvested and non-harvested reedbed habitats Chongming Dongtan Nature Reserve China, by recording number nestlings produced per nest causes failure. We modelled daily survival rate (DSR) considering effects harvesting, vegetation characteristics, year, date, advancement within breeding...
Abstract Background H6 subtype influenza viruses were prevalent in domestic poultry and wild birds, which also could pose potential threat to humans. However, little is known about the prevalence of birds eastern China, a crucial stopover or wintering site for migratory along East Asian-Australasian Flyway. Methods During routine surveillance 2016–2017, AIVs positive samples identified, representative strains selected further sequence phylogenetic analysis pathogenicity mice evaluated....
Coastlines with extensive estuaries and broad tidal flats are acutely vulnerable to coastal development. The wetlands of the Yellow Sea globally important for waterbirds, yet river mouths have disproportionately been developed as industrial ports, fishing or become abandoned type management strategies depending on biophysical attributes regional economic drivers. However, also support upper flat ecosystems, in contrast many open regions Sea, where reclamation has excised dramatically reduced...
Summary The Reed Parrotbill Paradoxornis heudei is an endemic reedbed-inhabiting passerine of east Asia. In the Shanghai municipality, which harbours significant populations this species, almost all reedbed surfaces are annually harvested. Furthermore, reedbeds being invaded by Smooth Cordgrass Spartina alterniflora , introduced species that can outcompete native Common Phragmites australis . paper, we have shown Parrotbills do not nest in areas dominated and avoid using them. primarily...
Abstract Amphibians play a key role in structuring biological assemblages of agricultural landscapes, but they are threatened by global intensification. Landscape structure is an important variable influencing biodiversity landscapes. However, the Yangtze River Delta, where "farmland-orchard-fishpond" pattern common, effects landscape construction on anuran populations unclear. In this study, we examined parameters abundance and body condition rice frog (Fejervarya multistriata), which...
H7N7 avian influenza virus (AIV) can divided into low-pathogenic AIV and high-pathogenic groups. It has been shown to infect humans animals. Its prevalence state in wild birds China remains largely unclear. In this study, a new strain of AIV, designated CM1216, isolated from Shanghai, China, was characterized. Phylogenetic nucleotide sequence analyses CM1216 revealed that HA, NA, PB1, NP, M genes shared the highest identity with Japan H7 subtype circulated 2019; PB2 PA Korea 2018, while NS...
