Abstract EN
Porcine Bocavirus (PBoV) has been reported to be associated with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome and pneumonia in pigs.
In this study, a survey was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of PBoV in slaughter pigs, sick pigs, asymptomatic pigs and classical swine fever virus (CSFV) eradication plan herds in five provinces of China (Henan, Liaoning, Shandong, Hebei and Tianjin) by means of PCR targeting NS1 gene of PBoV.
Among the total of 403 tissue samples, 11.41% were positive for PBoV.
The positive rates of spleen (20.75%) and inguinal lymph node (27.18%) are higher than those of other organs.
PCR products of twenty PBoV positive samples from slaughter pigs were sequenced for phylogenetic analysis.
The result revealed that PBoV could be divided into 6 groups (PBoV-a~PBoV-f).
All PBoV sequenced in this study belong to PBoV-a–PBoV-d with 90.1% to 99% nucleotide identities.
Our results exhibited significant genetic diversity of PBoV and suggested a complex prevalence of PBoV in Chinese swine herds.
Whether this diversity of PBoV has a significance to pig production or even public health remains to be further studied.
