AI Article Synopsis

  • The porcine parvovirus JT strain (PPV-JT) was identified in a piglet with heart inflammation in Shandong, China, back in 2010.
  • Researchers sequenced the entire genome of PPV-JT, which is 4,941 base pairs long, using DNA from replicated forms.
  • The analysis suggests that PPV-JT could have undergone recombination, providing insights into the virus's molecular traits and evolution in China.

Article Abstract

The porcine parvovirus JT strain (PPV-JT) was isolated from a piglet showing nonsuppurative myocarditis in Shandong, China, in 2010. The complete genomic sequence of PPV-JT, 4,941 bp long, was determined from clones made from replicative form (RF) DNA. The genomic analysis demonstrated that the PPV-JT might be involved in a recombination event, which will help us understand the molecular characteristics and evolutionary of PPV in China.
