Eighteen APPV strains were identified from 2,297 South Korean wild boars captured in 2019, with phylogenetic analysis classifying them into various subclades of Clade I.
Cross-Sectional (n=2,297)
APPV belonging to Clade I may be circulating at a higher level among South Korean wild boars than in domestic pig populations.
, causes congenital tremor (CT) type A-II in piglets. Eighteen APPV strains were identified from 2297 South Korean wild boars captured in 2019. Phylogenetic analysis of the structural protein E2 and nonstructural proteins NS3 and Npro classified the APPV viruses, including reference strains, into Clades I, II and III. Clade I was divided into four subclades; however, the strains belonging to the four subclades differed slightly, depending on the tree analysis, the NS3, E2, and Npro genes. The maximum-likelihood method was assigned to South Korean wild boar APPV strains to various subclades within the three trees: subclades I.1 and I.2 in the E2 tree, subclade I.1 in the Npro tree, and subclades I.1 and I.4 in the NS3 ML tree. In conclusion, APPV among South Korean wild boars belonging to Clade I may be circulating at a higher level than among the South Korean domestic pig populations.
Choe et al. (Wed,) conducted a cross-sectional in Atypical Porcine Pestivirus (APPV) infection (n=2,297). Atypical Porcine Pestivirus (APPV) was evaluated on Identification and phylogenetic classification of APPV strains. Eighteen APPV strains were identified from 2,297 South Korean wild boars captured in 2019, with phylogenetic analysis classifying them into various subclades of Clade I.
