Complete genome sequence of a highly prevalent porcine circovirus 2 isolated from piglet stool samples in China

J Virol. 2012 Apr;86(8):4716. doi: 10.1128/JVI.00268-12.

Abstract

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the etiologic agent of porcine circovirus-associated disease. Here, we first report the complete genome sequence of PCV2 strain JSTZ, which was isolated from piglet stool samples and is highly prevalent in China. It will help in understanding the epidemiology and molecular characteristics of PCV2.
