Shown is the strain, serotype, and presence (+) or absence (−) of hap, Hap, hmw1A/B/C, HMW1/2, hia, Hia, hifA/B/C/D/E, and positive (+) or negative (−) slide and nitrocellulose HA assays. The length of the PCR fragment corresponding to hia is shown in parentheses. ND, not done; WB, western blotting; SA, slide agglutination.
