Molecular Pathogenesis and Development of a Genetically Engineered Vaccine for Type-2 Porcine Circovirus
… of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS), whereas the ubiquitous porcine circovirus type 1 (PCV1) is nonpathogenic for pigs. Since its initial detection in a Canadian commercial swine herd in 1991, PMWS has been detected in all swine producing regions of the world and is now a …
