Genetic diversity of the ORF5 gene of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) genotypes I and II in Thailand

Abstract: To investigate the genetic diversity of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in Thailand, 279 ORF5 sequences of PRRSV collected during 2010-2011 from 102 swine herds in five swine-producing areas were analyzed. The co-existence of European (EU) and North American (NA) genotypes was observed in 98 % of herds investigated and was evident at the pig level. Both genotypes have evolved separately with a temporal influence on strain development. Novel introductions influence the genetic divers… Show more

“…Such amino acid divergence among the Taiwan strains could affect the cross-protection among Taiwan strains. This speculation is supported by the findings of a negative correlation between divergence of GP5 and activity of neutralizing antibody [31]. These antigenic variations were also most likely driven by the positive selection imposed by the use of MLV (see above).…”

“…This strain has 99 % similarity in its ORF5 gene to an exotic PRRSV-3925 strain (DQ477911) that originated in the USA, suggesting that it did not evolve from the WSV strain but rather represents a newly invading strain in Taiwan. This international spread has also occurred in the USA [36], Thailand [30,31] and Japan [11], revealing that transnational transmission of PRRSV is still taking place.…”
