| sequence analysis of a torque teno canis virus isolated in china. | in the present study, a total of 158 fecal samples were collected from diarrheal dogs younger than 1 year old in pet clinic in china. 20 specimens (20/158, 13%) were positive for torque teno canis virus dna using detection pcr. one representative positive isolate designated ldl was randomly selected, cloned and sequenced. the complete genome of the ldl chinese strain was 2799 nucleotides in length and contains three open reading frames (orfs), which encode 576 (orf1), 101 (orf2), and 243 (orf3) ... | 2011 | 21645561 |
| molecular detection and genomic characterization of torque teno canis virus in domestic dogs in guangxi province, china. | the torque teno canis virus (ttcav) is a small virus with circular single-stranded dna that has been reported to cause infections in dogs. the present study aimed to identify the presence of ttcav in blood samples obtained from domestic dogs, and examine its diversity and evolution of the genomes. five strains of ttcav were detected, and the overall prevalence was found to be 7% (28/400). phylogenetic analysis showed that the five genomes were closely clustered with the previously known cf-ttv10 ... | 2017 | 28483442 |
| epidemiology, genetic diversity and evolution of canine astrovirus. | astroviruses (astvs) are major causative agents of gastroenteritis in children and have been reported in many species. canine astrovirus (caastv), as an enteric pathogen, has been widely detected worldwide, but little is known about their genetic diversity and evolution, partly owing to a lack of genomic data. here, we sequenced 12 nearly full-length caastv genomes to address the gap in knowledge. we found 14 (13.2%) and 7 (3.35%) caastv-positive samples from pet dogs with and without diarrhoea, ... | 2020 | 32946195 |
