Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) was first recognized as a causative agent of post weaning multisystemicsyndrome or PMWS in Canada in 1991. Subsequently, it has been reported in almost all intensive pig productioncountries, and currently all associated diseases linked to PCV2 are included under the term porcine circovirusassociated diseases or PCVAD. PCV2 can be divided into 2 major genotypes referred to genotype 1 (PCV2b) andgenotype 2 (PCV2a). In Thailand, PMWS was first reported in 1998. However, only one isolate of Thai PCV2 from ourgroup has been submitted to GenBank (AY864814). Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine thegenetic …

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) spike (S) glyprotein and membrane (M) glycoprotein genes arebelieved to have genetic variation. The heterogeneity in those genomic sequences has been reported and is knownessentially for the diverse PEDV pathogenicity. Eight southern Vietnamese PEDVs collected from severe waterydiarrhea piglets of the recent emerging outbreaks (2009-2010) were sequenced and analyzed. The results revealedhigh nucleotide homology of the partial S gene of the current isolates at 98.9-100% and 99.7-100% identity of the fullM gene among these isolates despite dividing into two subclusters of different provincial origins. It should be notedthat the Vietnamese PEDVs contained high differences on …
