Abstract
ABSTRACTHere, we report sequences of the porcine parvovirus 2 (PPV2) genome, isolated from pigs in the Republic of Korea in 2016. The sequences of open reading frames 1 and 2 (ORF1 and ORF2) had a 98.8 to 98.9% homology with the US135 strain and 98.8% homology with the US523 strain, respectively. This is the first study to report the PPV2 genome in South Korean pigs.
Highlights
We report sequences of the porcine parvovirus 2 (PPV2) genome, isolated from pigs in the Republic of Korea in 2016
We report two complete sequences of PPV2 genomes which were identified in lung tissues of fattening pigs from a slaughter house located in the Gyeongbuk province in the Republic of Korea in 2016
PCR amplifications were performed for a total of 15 of the lung tissues with a pair of primers (PPV2-DF and PPV2-DR) that detected open reading frame 2 (ORF2) (5)
Summary
We report sequences of the porcine parvovirus 2 (PPV2) genome, isolated from pigs in the Republic of Korea in 2016. We report two complete sequences of PPV2 genomes which were identified in lung tissues of fattening pigs from a slaughter house located in the Gyeongbuk province in the Republic of Korea in 2016. DNAs were extracted from 10% lung homogenized samples with a DNA extraction kit (Intron, Inc., Republic of Korea). PCR amplifications were performed for a total of 15 of the lung tissues with a pair of primers (PPV2-DF and PPV2-DR) that detected open reading frame 2 (ORF2) (5).
