Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of recently described porcine parvoviruses in archived North American samples from 1996 and association with porcine circovirus associated disease

Tanja Opriessnig, +3 more
- 17 Sep 2014 - 
TL;DR: The obtained findings indicate that similar to PCV2, PPVs are widespread in North American pigs, and diagnostic investigations into PCVAD cases should give more consideration to the role of PPV1 and PPV2 as contributing cofactors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of shedding patterns of Porcine circovirus types 2a and 2b in experimentally inoculated mature boars

Darin M. Madson, +6 more
- 01 Nov 2008 - 
TL;DR: The incidence and duration of presence of PCV-2 DNA in semen varied among boars; however, intermittent shedding was not observed and differences in shedding patterns between PCv-2a and −2b were not observed under the study conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

The open reading frame 3 (ORF3) of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is dispensable for virus infection but evidence of reduced pathogenicity is limited in pigs infected by an ORF3-null PCV2 mutant

Nicole M. Juhan, +3 more
- 01 Jan 2010 - 
TL;DR: The results showed that pigs inoculated with muPCV2 had a delayed seroconversion and lower serum viral load, and the results did show that ORF3 is dispensable for PCV2 replication in pigs, which does not fully support the conclusion of a previous report regarding PCV 2 attenuation by abrogation of ORF 3.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV2) Vaccination of the Dam on PCV2 Replication In Utero

Darin M. Madson, +5 more
- 01 Jun 2009 - 
TL;DR: The results from this study indicate that vertical transmission ofPCV2 can occur in PCV2-vaccinated dams.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rescue of a genotype 4 human hepatitis E virus from cloned cDNA and characterization of intergenotypic chimeric viruses in cultured human liver cells and in pigs

Laura Córdoba, +6 more
- 01 Oct 2012 - 
TL;DR: Pigs inoculated intrahepatically with capped RNA transcripts from pHEV-4TW developed an active infection, as evidenced by faecal virus shedding and seroconversion, indicating the successful rescue of infectious genotypes 4 HEV and cross-species infection of pigs by a genotype 4 human HEV.
