Key result
Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and PCV2 infection were identified in wild boar piglets in Croatia, with phylogenetic analysis showing a distinct genetic branch.
Population
8 wild young piglets (approximately 2 to 5 months of age) found dead in a fenced hunting area

This report provides the first evidence of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) in wild boar in Croatia and identifies a distinct phylogenetic branch for the local PCV2 isolate.
Lipej et al. (2007) conducted a case report in Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) (n=8). PCV2 infection was evaluated on Detection of PMWS and PCV2 genome. Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and PCV2 infection were identified in wild boar piglets in Croatia, with phylogenetic analysis showing a distinct genetic branch.
