Abstract
Porcine parainfluenza virus 1 (PPIV-1) is a paramyxovirus causing respiratory infections in pigs and has been reported worldwide. In this study, we conducted a cross-sectional survey of PPIV-1 in pig farms in Thailand and Myanmar from January 2022 to December 2023. Nasal swab samples from pigs in Thailand (n = 1,042) and Myanmar (n = 449) were collected from clinically healthy pigs and pigs with respiratory signs. PPIV-1 detection was carried out using the L gene-specific RT-PCR assay. Our results showed that 3.65% (38/1042) and 7.57% (34/449) were positive for PPIV-1 in Thailand and Myanmar, respectively. The viruses (n = 15) were subjected to whole genome sequencing (n = 4) and F and HN gene sequencing (n = 11). Genetic and phylogenetic analyses showed that Thai PPIV-1 (n = 7) was grouped into PPIV-1 lineage II (American lineage) and closely related to American and Chinese strains. On the other hand, one Thai PPIV-1 strain (n = 1) and Myanmar PPIV-1 (n = 7) belonged to lineage I (European lineage) and was closely related to European, Hong Kong (China), and South Korean strains. Our findings suggest that PPIV-1s from both lineages (I and II) are circulating in pigs in Thailand, and PPIV-1 of lineage I is circulating in pigs in Myanmar, suggesting high genetic diversity of PPIV-1 in the Southeast Asia region. This study is the first to report whole-genome sequences of PPIV-1 from pigs in Thailand and Myanmar. Our result provided insights and information about the current disease status and genetic diversity of PPIV-1 in pig farms, which will benefit further animal disease surveillance, prevention, and control.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers in Veterinary Science is a global, peer-reviewed, Open Access journal that bridges animal and human health, brings a comparative approach to medical and surgical challenges, and advances innovative biotechnology and therapy.
Veterinary research today is interdisciplinary, collaborative, and socially relevant, transforming how we understand and investigate animal health and disease. Fundamental research in emerging infectious diseases, predictive genomics, stem cell therapy, and translational modelling is grounded within the integrative social context of public and environmental health, wildlife conservation, novel biomarkers, societal well-being, and cutting-edge clinical practice and specialization. Frontiers in Veterinary Science brings a 21st-century approach—networked, collaborative, and Open Access—to communicate this progress and innovation to both the specialist and to the wider audience of readers in the field.
Frontiers in Veterinary Science publishes articles on outstanding discoveries across a wide spectrum of translational, foundational, and clinical research. The journal''s mission is to bring all relevant veterinary sciences together on a single platform with the goal of improving animal and human health.
