A representative HA sequence from the subtype H10N7 viruses detected from the New South Wales chicken farm outbreak (A/chicken/Sydney/809/2010) has been submitted to the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data (accession no. EPI339225) and is marked by the star in the tree. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
