Segmented virus genomes, such as those of influenza A viruses (IAVs), consist of multiple segments. This structure enables the generation of novel strains through reassortment, where segments from different strains combine, greatly increasing the genetic diversity of segmented viruses. Reassortment can confer new biological properties to viruses, such as increased transmission rates, as evidenced by several influenza pandemics throughout history. Consequently, it is crucial to monitor reassortme
