Rapid detection and subtyping of human influenza A viruses and reassortants by pyrosequencing.

<h4>Background</h4>Given the continuing co-circulation of the 2009 H1N1 pandemic influenza A viruses with seasonal H3N2 viruses, rapid and reliable detection of newly emerging influenza reassortant viruses is important to enhance our influenza surveillance.<h4>Methodology/principal...
