The Origin and Evolution of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Viruses [PDF]
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome viruses (PRRSV) are divided into North American and European types, which show about 40% difference in their amino acid sequences. The divergence time of these two types has been estimated to be about 1980 from epidemiological data. This suggested that PRRSV have evolved at a higher evolutionary rate (order

The porcine virome and xenotransplantation
The composition of the porcine virome includes viruses that infect pig cells, ancient virus-derived elements including endogenous retroviruses inserted in the pig chromosomes, and bacteriophages that infect a broad array of bacteria that inhabit pigs ...

Enteric porcine viruses in farmed shellfish in Denmark
Bivalve shellfish are at constant risk of being exposed to pathogens as a consequence of contamination of the shellfish beds with human or animal waste originating from sewage treatment plants or slurry fertilized fields. Consumption of contaminated oysters and mussels are frequently reported as causes of disease outbreaks caused by norovirus or ...

The prevention strategies of swine viruses related to xenotransplantation
Xenotransplantation is considered a solution for the shortage of organs, and pigs play an indispensable role as donors in xenotransplantation. The biosecurity of pigs, especially the zoonotic viruses carried by pigs, has attracted attention.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in GB pig herds : farm characteristics associated with heterogeneity in seroprevalence [PDF]
Background: The between- and within-herd variability of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) antibodies were investigated in a cross-sectional study of 103 British pig herds conducted 2003–2004.

Porcine gastroenteric viruses: pathogenesis and protection
The complexity of known porcine coronaviruses (CoVs) has considerably increased. To the classical transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) known since 1946, its deletion mutant with an exclusive respiratory tropism, the porcine respiratory CoV (PRCV), and the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), several emerging CoVs have been added.

Human and Porcine Hepatitis E Viruses, Southeastern Bolivia
To the Editor: Hepatitis E virus (HEV) genotypes 3 and 4 are considered to be primarily zoonotic (1). However, recent data indicate that both genotypes can be transmitted among humans through other routes (2,3). Observations of genetic distinctiveness between swine and human HEV strains circulating within the same region argue against exclusivity of ...
