Genotypic Change and Phylogenetic Analysis of Porcine Circovirus Type 2 in Taiwanese Pig Herds

Abstract: ABSTRACT. Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the primary causative agent of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome. Two major PCV2 genotypes, PCV2a and PCV2b, have been identified. To explore the prevalence of different subgroups of PCV2 in Taiwan Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the primary causative agent of porcine circovirus-associated diseases (PCVADs) in pigs and causes significant economic losses in most pig-producing countries [27]. PCVADs can be subclinical or can include 1 or more clinical ma… Show more

“…The higher prevalence of PCV2b than PCV2a recorded could be due to a genotypic switch from PCV2a to PCV2b overtime. This is supported by other published reports [9,10,13,30]. The concurrent infection of PCV2a and PCV2b…”

“…The genotypic shift was observed in Taiwan too. PCV2b was the predominant genotype before 2007, but it was replaced by PCV2d-2 in 2010 in the swine farms of Taiwan 25 , and the latter continues to dominate. Indeed, the genotypic shift was observed in previous studies.…”

“…Therefore, the phylogenetic analysis based on the ORF2 of PCV2 is believed to be representative of a complete genome analysis 8,15 . Two genotypes, PCV2b-1C and the novel PCV2b, which were previously considered newly emerged genotypes of PCV2 in Taiwan 25,26 , were redefined in this study as PCV2d-1 or PCV2d-2 through phylogenetic analysis of ORF2 (Fig. 4).…”
