The cold-adapted master strain A/Ann Arbor/6/60 7PI (H2N2) and progenitor wild type E2(3) viral strains have been deposited and their genomic sequences identified. Seven nucleotide differences were found between the sequences identified herein and the previously published sequences for cold-adapted A/Ann Arbor/6/60 genes. The cold-adapted live influenza virus of the present invention can be reassorted with a variety of epidemic wild type influenza viruses and used to produce vaccines to prophylactically and therapeutically treat influenza.
