| Abstract |
Highly pathogenic avian influenza A virus (H5N1) has diverged an
tigenically and genetically since its initial
detection in Asia in 1997. Viruses belonging to clade 2.2 in particular hav
e been reported in numerous countries with the majority
occurring in Egypt. Previous reports identified antigenic similarities
between viruses belonging to clade 2.2. However, poultry and

from this country. Genetic analysi
