Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) infection, which causes acute diarrhea and dehydration in suckling piglets, has become a serious problem for the swine industry of China in recent years. In this study, a virulent PEDV strain, GD-1, was obtained from fecal samples from suckling piglets that suffered from severe diarrhea in 2011 in Guangdong, China. Here we describe the complete genome sequence of strain GD-1, which may be helpful in further understanding the molecular epidemiology and genetic diversity of PEDV field isolates in China.
猪流行性腹泻病毒(PEDV)感染会导致仔猪发生急性腹泻和脱水,近年来已成为中国养猪业的一个严重问题。在本研究中,我们从 2011 年广东发生严重腹泻的仔猪粪便样本中分离得到一株强毒 PEDV 株 GD-1。本研究中我们对 GD-1 株的全基因组序列进行了描述,这可能有助于进一步了解中国 PEDV 田间分离株的分子流行病学和遗传多样性。
