Key result
Porcine circovirus-like viruses were isolated from pigs with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in the USA and France, showing antigenic distinction from the original PCV contaminant.

May represent emerging PCV variants in porcine PMWS; leaves open implications for diagnostics and vaccines in swine.
Observational
Yes
The study isolates and identifies a PCV-like virus associated with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in pigs from the USA and France.
Allan et al. (1998) conducted an observational in postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome. Porcine circovirus-like viruses was evaluated on Detection and isolation of PCV-like viruses. Porcine circovirus-like viruses were isolated from pigs with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in the USA and France, showing antigenic distinction from the original PCV contaminant.
