(Frontiers Media, 2022-10-20)
Senecavirus A (SVA) is a non-enveloped, single-stranded, positive-sense RNA
virus belonging to the Picornaviridae family. Senecavirus A is constantly
associated with outbreaks of vesicular disease in ...
Variations in association of nasal microbiota with virulent and non-virulent strains of Glaesserella (Haemophilus) parasuis in weaning piglets
(BMC, 2020-02-03)
Glaesserella (formerly Haemophilus) parasuis causes Glässer's disease, which results in high economic loss in the swine industry. To understand the polymicrobial interactions of G. parasuis and the nasal ...
Evolution of Swine Influenza Virus H3N2 in Vaccinated and Nonvaccinated Pigs after Previous Natural H1N1 Infection
(MDPI, 2022-09-10)
Swine influenza viruses (SIV) produce a highly contagious and worldwide distributed
disease that can cause important economic losses to the pig industry. Currently, this virus is endemic
in farms and, ...
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) population study in experimentally infected pigs developing PCV2-systemic disease or a subclinical infection
(Nature Research, 2020-10-20)
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) is a single stranded DNA virus with one of the highest mutation rates among DNA viruses. This ability allows it to generate a cloud of mutants constantly providing new ...
Commercial feed containing porcine plasma spiked with African swine fever virus is not infective in pigs when administered for 14 consecutive days
(Public Library of Science, 2020-07-22)
The objective of this study was to determine if commercially collected liquid porcine plasma contaminated with African swine fever virus (ASFV) and fed for 14 consecutive days would infect pigs. ...
Genetic parameters and associated genomic regions for global immunocompetence and other health-related traits in pigs
(Nature Research, 2020-10-28)
The inclusion of health-related traits, or functionally associated genetic markers, in pig breeding programs could contribute to produce more robust and disease resistant animals. The aim of the present ...
