Harnessing the Genetic Plasticity of Porcine Circovirus Type 2 to Target Suicidal Replication

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), the causative agent of a wasting disease in weanling piglets, has periodically evolved into several new subtypes since its discovery, indicating that the efficacy of current vaccines can be improved. Although a DNA virus,

A novel kirkovirus may be associated with equine gastrointestinal disease

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 2, Page 414-422, March 2026.
Abstract Background Many cases of equine enterocolitis are suspected to be infectious in nature, but no pathogen is identified in many cases. Objectives Perform next‐generation sequencing on faeces collected from cases of equine enterocolitis for the presence of novel viruses and determine if an identified novel virus is associated with cases of equine

Porcine circovirus structure and replication: a minireview

open access: yes, 2020
Porcine circoviruses (PCV) are nonenveloped, and have covalently linked circular single stranded (ss) DNA genome. They are the smallest animal viruses capable of independent replication.

Diverse single-stranded DNA viruses from viral metagenomics on a cynopterus bat in China

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Bats serve as reservoirs for many emerging viruses. Cressdnaviruses can infect a wide range of animals, including agricultural species, such as pigs, in which porcine circoviruses cause severe gastroenteritis.

Development of Magnetic Particle–Based Chemiluminescence Immunoassays for Detecting PCV2 VLP‐ and Rep‐Specific Antibodies and Their Combined Use for Immune Evaluation and Replication‐Associated Exposure Assessment

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) remains a major swine pathogen, and interpretation of capsid protein (Cap)–based serology is challenging in vaccinated populations because vaccine‐induced Cap antibodies overlap with replication‐associated serological signals.

Lack of Porcine circovirus 4 Genome Detection in Pig Samples from Italy and Spain

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
The genus Circovirus includes several species and mostly causes asymptomatic infections. Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) and, with increasing evidence, Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3), have been associated with different clinical conditions all over the world.

Epidemiological investigation and analysis of the infection of porcine circovirus in Xinjiang

open access: yesVirology Journal
Porcine circoviruses, particularly porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3), significantly impact the global pig industry due to their high prevalence and pathogenicity.

Detection and analysis of porcine circovirus type 2 in the Irish pig population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS) is a recently emerged multifactorial clinical disease of swine that affects nursery and growing pigs and PCV2 is believed to be the main aetiological agent of the disease. PMWS has emerged in Ireland as a

Prevalence of porcine circoviruses in Transylvanian wild boars, detected by real-time PCR — short communication

open access: yes, 2010
Porcine circoviruses (PCV) are widespread in domestic pigs worldwide and there is growing information about the presence of PCV in other suid species. Based on serological studies with sera of wild boars, it was established that PCV1 was present in these

Unveiling Novel Viral Diversity, Biogeography, and Host Networks in Wildlife Through High‐Throughput Sequencing Data Mining

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 46, December 11, 2025.
Analysis of 57 536 high‐throughput sequencing datasets uncovers a vast, hidden world of viruses in wildlife. The researchers reveal significant geographic and host‐specific patterns of viruses, and their surprising cross‐species transmissions, such as avian flu viruses infecting goats.
