Molecular characterization of canine parvovirus variants (CPV-2a, CPV-2b, and CPV-2c) based on the VP2 gene in affected domestic dogs in Ecuador [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2018 Aim: The objective of this study was to determine the presence of the variants of canine parvovirus (CPV)-2 in the city of Quito, Ecuador, due to the high domestic and street-type canine population, and to identify possible mutations at a genetic level ...

Review of published research on primary dysautonomia of domestic animals
Veterinary Record, Volume 198, Issue 1, Page e30-e40, 3/10 January 2026.Abstract An article published in 1992 by Marion M. Pollin and I.R. Griffiths reviewed the topic of primary dysautonomias of the autonomic nervous system of unidentified origin in multiple domestic species, specifically cats, dogs and horses. Thirty‐one years later, we appear no closer to identifying the causal agents of these strikingly similar ...

First Molecular Detection of Torque Teno Canis Virus in Apparently Healthy Dogs in Southern Italy
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.•Torque teno canis virus has been detected in dogs from southern Italy. •Detection of TTCaV DNA was more frequent in dogs with an altered faecal score, mixed‐breed and belonging to kennels. ABSTRACT Background Torque teno viruses are viruses with unclear pathogenic potential, as conflicting evidence has classified this family of viruses as harmless and

Nearly full‐length genome characterization of canine parvovirus strains circulating in Nigeria
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2019 Canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV‐2) emerged suddenly in the late 1970s as pathogen of dogs, causing a severe and often fatal gastroenteric disease. The original CPV‐2 was replaced by three antigenic variants, CPV‐2a, CPV‐2b and CPV‐2c, which to date have ...
