Journal ArticleDOI
Porcine circovirus type 2-associated disease: Update on current terminology, clinical manifestations, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and intervention strategies
TL;DR: The most common disease manifestations, pathogenesis, diagnostic approaches, and intervention strategies associated with PCVAD in North America are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Yao-Wei Huang,Yao-Wei Huang,Allan W. Dickerman,Pablo Piñeyro,Long Li,Li Fang,Ross Kiehne,Tanja Opriessnig,Tanja Opriessnig,Xiang-Jin Meng +9 more
TL;DR: The finding that the emergent U.S. PEDV strains share unique genetic features at the 5′-untranslated region with a bat coronavirus provided further support of the evolutionary origin of P EDV from bats and potential cross-species transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental reproduction of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in pigs by dual infection with Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and porcine circovirus type 2.
TL;DR: This study indicates that M. hyopneumoniae potentiates the severity of PCV2-associated lung and lymphoid lesions, increases the amount and prolongs the presence of PCv2-antigen, and increases the incidence of PMWS in pigs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection and characterization of infectious Hepatitis E virus from commercial pig livers sold in local grocery stores in the USA
TL;DR: In this article, a universal RT-PCR assay capable of detecting all four known HEV genotypes was used to determine the presence of HEV RNA in commercial pig livers sold in local grocery stores in the USA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymicrobial respiratory disease in pigs
TL;DR: This review discusses the latest findings on polymicrobial respiratory disease in pigs and recommends best practices for control of swine respiratory disease outbreaks caused by concurrent infection of two or more pathogens.
