TLDR
Coronavirus-like particles were detected by electron microscopy in the intestinal contents of pigs during a diarrheal outbreak on 4 swine breeding farms, which was found to be distinct from the known porcine coronaviruses, transmissible gastroenteritis virus and hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus.
Abstract
Coronavirus-like particles were detected by electron microscopy in the intestinal contents of pigs during a diarrheal outbreak on 4 swine breeding farms. Diarrhea was reproduced in experimental pigs with one of the isolates, designated CV777, which was found to be distinct from the 2 known porcine coronaviruses, transmissible gastroenteritis virus and hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus.

A decade after SARS: strategies for controlling emerging coronaviruses

TL;DR: The emergence and identification of novel human coronaviruses over the past 10 years are described, their key biological features are discussed, including tropism and receptor use, and approaches for developing broadly effective vaccines are summarized.

Porcine epidemic diarrhoea virus: a comprehensive review of molecular epidemiology, diagnosis, and vaccines.

TL;DR: The molecular and genetic characteristics of the porcine epidemic diarrhoea virus are described, its molecular epidemiology and diagnosis, what vaccines are available, and how PEDV can be treated are discussed.

Origin, Evolution, and Genotyping of Emergent Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus Strains in the United States

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.

Bats and Coronaviruses.

TL;DR: This review follows the CoV outbreaks that are speculated to have originated in bats and reviews studies that have allowed researchers to identify unique adaptation in bats that may allow them to harbor CoVs without severe disease.

Reverse genetics with a full-length infectious cDNA of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus

TL;DR: Using a panel of contiguous cDNAs that span the entire genome, the authors have assembled a full-length cDNA of the SARS-CoV Urbani strain, and have rescued molecularly cloned SARS viruses (infectious clone SARS -CoV) that contained the expected marker mutations inserted into the component clones.

The isolation of reovirus-like agents (rotaviruses) from acute gastroenteritis of piglets (Plates XVI)

TL;DR: It is concluded that the pig rotavirus is commonly associated with outbreaks of gastroenteritis and is probably an important aetiological factor in this disease.

A Hemagglutinating Virus Producing Encephalomyelitis in Baby Pigs.

TL;DR: In each case a cytopathogenic microorganism markedly different to the enteroviruses previously described has been isolated and proved to be hemagglutinating viruses and were shown to be pathogenic for baby pigs.

Pleomorphic virus-like particles in human faeces.

TL;DR: Pleomorphic fringed particles bearing some resemblance to orthomyxoviruses and coronaviruses were seen in 90% ofStools from south Indian children and adults but not in stools from neonates, which may be related to the abnormalities of intestinal structure and function common in this region of India.
