Phylogenetic analysis of porcine circovirus 2 and its related viruses [PDF]
IntroductionPorcine circovirus (PCV) belongs to the family Circoviridae. Four conventional PCVs (PCV1 to PCV4) have been discovered over time. PCV1 and PCV2 exhibit higher nucleotide identity compared to PCV3 and PCV4.

Emerging Challenges and Advances in Porcine Circovirus: A Decade in Review. [PDF]
Over the past decade, porcine circoviruses (PCVs) have continued to pose a significant threat to global swine health, and pivotal discoveries have significantly reshaped our understanding of their biology and control. Extensive genomic surveillance has expanded porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) genotyping from four to at least eight lineages, with PCV2d now ...

Field Evaluation of a Novel Combined Vaccine Against Porcine Circovirus Types 2a/d, Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and Mycoplasma hyorhinis With an Emphasis on Growth Performance. [PDF]
A field trial on three commercial farms evaluated a combined vaccine targeting PCV2a/d, Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, and Mycoplasma hyorhinis. Vaccinated pigs showed improved average daily weight gain, stronger immune responses against these pathogens, and significantly reduced viral and mycoplasmal loads and lesion severity, supporting its efficacy under

Host immune response to infection with porcine circoviruses
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), which serves as a major causative agent of PCV2-associated diseases and causes severe loss to the pig industry worldwide, can dysregulate the immune response and induce immunosuppression in PCV2-infected pigs. Similar to
