molecular characterization of porcine circovirus type 2 isolates from post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome-affected and non-affected pigs.	porcine circovirus type 2 (pcv2) is recognized as a primary cause in post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (pmws). in this study, both pcv1 and pcv2 types were studied in pigs originating from pmws-affected (+) and non-affected (-) herds from brittany. pcv2 was identified by pcr in 100 % of animals from pmws(+) herds and in 76 % from pmws(-) herds, while pcv1 was not detected. the complete sequences of 38 pcv2 isolates were determined and 23 new variants were identified, displaying between ...	2004	14769887
isolation of porcine circovirus-like viruses from pigs with a wasting disease in the usa and europe.	samples of lung, liver, kidney, pancreas, spleen, and lymph node from pigs with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome from california (usa) and samples of mesenteric lymph nodes from similarly diseased pigs from brittany (france) were examined by light microscopy, in situ hybridization (ish), and/or virus isolation. whole genomic probes for porcine circovirus (pcv) and chicken anemia virus (cav) were used for ish. tissue homogenate supernatants were inoculated onto pk/15 cells for virus iso ...	1998	9526853
