Circoviruses (CV) include some of the smallest viruses known. They were named after their
circularly arranged single-stranded DNA genome with a gene encoding a conserved …

Porcine circovirus (PCV) is one of the smallest known DNA viruses in mammals. At present,
PCVs are divided into three species, PCV1, PCV2, and PCV3. PCV1 and PCV2 were found …

This study aimed to review the transmission routes of important infectious pig diseases and
to translate these into biosecurity measures preventing or reducing the transmission …

Summary Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV‐3) has emerged as a potential threat for swine industry,
being consistently reported in the presence of several clinical signs all around the world …

Introduction Since their identification in 1974, circoviruses have caused clinicopathological
diseases in various animal species, including humans. However, their origin, transmission …

ABSTRACT Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) is the smallest pathogenic virus capable of
autonomous replication within its host. Infections result in immunosuppression and …

Accidentally found, two poisoned brown rats from Hungary were surveyed for presence of
circoviral DNA, using specific nested primers, designed against the rep gene of the virus …

Background Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) has caused great economic losses in the
global pig industry. There have been published records of wild rats acting as the reservoirs …

Abstract Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is considered the major etiological pathogen of
porcine circovirus-associated diseases (PCVADs) in pigs. Recently, PCV2 was also found in …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the fecal-oral transmission of L. intracellularis between
mice and pigs. The study was divided into two parts. The first part aimed to determine …
