Co-infection of porcine astrovirus and other porcine viruses in diarrheic pigs in Haryana, India
Abstract In this study, 306 rectal swabs from diarrheal pigs of various ages (0–3 weeks, 3–6 weeks, and > 6 weeks) were collected from 54 piggery units in different climatic zones in Haryana, India. These samples were tested for the presence of porcine astrovirus (PAstV), porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2), porcine rotavirus A (PRV-A), and ...

A Review on the Use of Antimicrobial Peptides to Combat Porcine Viruses [PDF]
Viral infectious diseases pose a serious threat to animal husbandry, especially in the pig industry. With the rapid, continuous variation of viruses, a series of therapeutic measures, including vaccines, have quickly lost their efficacy, leading to great losses for animal husbandry.

Replication of porcine circoviruses
Porcine circoviruses are circular single-stranded DNA viruses that infect swine and wild boars. Two species of porcine circoviruses exist. Porcine circovirus type 1 is non pathogenic contrary to porcine circovirus type 2 which is associated with the ...

Emergence of porcine circovirus‐like viruses associated with porcine diarrheal disease in China
The circular replication-associated protein (Rep)-encoding single-stranded (CRESS) DNA virus emergence in diverse host has been associated with severe disease. Porcine circovirus-like virus (Po-Circo-like [PCL] virus) is a CRESS DNA virus, the prevalence and pathogenicity of which are rarely studied.We obtained two blood samples, four faecal samples ...

Parvovirus 4–like Virus in Blood Products
Porcine plasma and factor VIII preparations were screened for parvovirus 4 (PARV)–like viruses. Although the prevalence of PARV4-like viruses in plasma samples was relatively low, viruses appeared to be concentrated during manufacture of factor VIII ...

Differential resistance to cell entry by porcine endogenous retrovirus subgroup A in rodent species [PDF]
Background: The risk of zoonotic infection by porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERV) has been highlighted in the context of pig-to-human xenotransplantation. The use of receptors for cell entry often determines the host range of retroviruses.
