| viral metagenomic analysis of bushpigs (potamochoerus larvatus) in uganda identifies novel variants of porcine parvovirus 4 and torque teno sus virus 1 and 2. | as a result of rapidly growing human populations, intensification of livestock production and increasing exploitation of wildlife habitats for animal agriculture, the interface between wildlife, livestock and humans is expanding, with potential impacts on both domestic animal and human health. wild animals serve as reservoirs for many viruses, which may occasionally result in novel infections of domestic animals and/or the human population. given this background, we used metagenomics to investig ... | 2012 | 22967311 |
| presence of torque teno sus virus in porcine circovirus type 2-associated disease in croatia. | torque teno virus (ttv) is ubiquitous and species-specific, and two different ttv species, torque teno sus virus 1 (ttsuv1) and torque teno sus virus 2 (ttsuv2), have been described in domestic pigs and wild boars. whether these two species are involved in clinical cases of porcine circovirus type 2-associated disease (pcvds) remains unknown. this study investigates the presence of ttsuv in 85 fetuses, pigs and wild boars infected by pcv2 and affected by pcvds other than postweaning multisystemi ... | 2012 | 23104589 |
| phylogeny, spatio-temporal phylodynamics and evolutionary scenario of torque teno sus virus 1 (ttsuv1) and 2 (ttsuv2) in wild boars: fast dispersal and high genetic diversity. | torque teno sus viruses (ttsuv1-2), members of the newly established family anelloviridae are considered non-pathogenic emerging viral agents of suidae species. however, the genetic diversity, phylogeny and evolutionary processes responsible for the emergence and spread of ttsuvs in wild boars remain poorly understood. here we implemented phylogenetic and evolutionary analyses to address key questions on the genetic diversity, evolutionary scenario and spatio-temporal dynamics of emerging ttsuvs ... | 2013 | 23850440 |
| high prevalence of torque teno sus virus in china and genetic diversity of the 5' non-coding region. | members of the family anelloviridae are emerging circular dna viruses infecting many species of vertebrates including pigs. to date, members of two distinct genera, iotatorquevirus, including torque teno sus virus 1a and torque teno sus virus 1b (ttsuv1a and ttsuv1b), and kappatorquevirus, including torque teno sus virus k2a and torque teno sus virus k2b (ttsuvk2a and ttsuvk2b), have been identified in domestic pigs and wild boars. the goal of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and geneti ... | 2013 | 23435953 |
