Highlights

  • The haplotype network map shows that the 2014 H1N1 strain has gene communication with the 2016/17 H3N2 strain.

  • The genetic evolution rates of H1N1 and H3N2 influenza viruses are fluctuant from 2013 to 2019.

  • From the end of 2018 to the beginning of 2019, the genetic evolution rate of H1N1 influenza virus increased significantly (1.13E−3).
