Table 9 Percentages of HA and NA genes identified in nasal swab supernatants with M gene Cq-value <35, either in low throughput analyses (routine diagnosis performed by the French NRL, January 2014–August 2016) or in high-throughput analyses (longitudinal survey in three herds), according to the M gene Cq-values
