Selection For Immune Responses To Porcine Circovirus (Pcv2) To Decrease Incidence Of Porcine Circovirus Associated Disease (Pcvad), Jared S. Bates, Roman Moreno, Alan R. Doster, Rodger Johnson

Nebraska Swine Reports

Genetic and environmental effects on incidence of Porcine Circovirus Associated Disease (PCVAD) and immune responses to Porcine Circovirus 2 (PCV2), and their relationships with body weights were studied in 3,440 pigs of the Nebraska litter size selection lines. Pigs were weighed at birth, weaning, 65, and 180 days of age and scored for symptoms of PCVAD every 10 days from 70 to 180 days of age. Necropsies were performed to confirm accuracy of scoring.

Nebraska’S 8 Great Natural Wonders, Paul A, Johnsgard Jan 2009

Nebraska’S 8 Great Natural Wonders, Paul A, Johnsgard

Paul Johnsgard Collection

FOR MANY PEOPLE, Nebraska is part of a large, indefinite segment of the central United States dismissively known as “flyover country,” which is best observed through a jet’s window from at least 30,000 feet and while sipping a cool drink.
