Novel porcine epidemic diarrhea virus variant with large genomic deletion, South Korea

Emerg Infect Dis. 2014 Dec;20(12):2089-92. doi: 10.3201/eid2012.131642.

Abstract

Since 1992, porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) has been one of the most common porcine diarrhea-associated viruses in South Korea. We conducted a large-scale investigation of the incidence of PEDV in pigs with diarrhea in South Korea and consequently identified and characterized a novel PEDV variant with a large genomic deletion.
