The emergence of porcine circovirus 2b genotype (PCV-2b) in swine in Canada.
Since late 2004, the swine industry in the province of Quebec has experienced a significant increase in death rate related to postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS). To explain this phenomenon, 2 hypotheses were formulated: 1) the presence of a 2nd pathogen could be exacerbating the porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) infection, or 2) a new and ...

Molecular diversity of Brazilian strains of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2)
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) is associated with a broad range of syndromes. In this study, eight pig tissue samples from two Brazilian states were analyzed using six PCR primer pairs amplifying a 1705-bp fragment of the PCV-2 genome. The NJ distance-based method was used for the phylogenetic analysis with the eight field strains herein, 15 GenBank ...

Lack of detection of Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) in formalin-fixed, paraffin- embedded tissues from porcine abortions in Switzerland [PDF]
The novel Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) has been associated in the past years to different porcine diseases, including reproductive failure. The potential occurrence of PCV-3 in abortions from Swiss pig herds has not been investigated so far. Thus, we conducted a retrospective study on pig aborted cases submitted to our laboratory in the University of ...

Efficacy of a new ready-to-use vaccine against PCV-2d and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae under experimental conditions [PDF]
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (M. hyo) and porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) are major and widespread swine pathogens, both implicated in the porcine respiratory disease complex, which can lead to significant economic losses for pig producers.

Genetic characterization of porcine circovirus type 2 from pigs with porcine circovirus associated diseases in Argentina [PDF]
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) has been associated with syndromes grouped by the term porcine circovirus associated diseases (PCVAD). The PCV-2 isolates have been grouped into two major groups or genotypes according to their nucleotide sequence of ...

Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) variability: Is it in the virus or in the classification criteria?
AbstractThe continuous discovery of new viruses during the last decades has increased the need for new classification approaches and rules. Currently, the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses classifies viruses up to the species level.
