Abstract excerpt
Porcine teschoviruses (PTVs) have been previously shown to be the most abundant cytopathic viruses found in swine feces. In the present study, the diversity of PTVs was studied, using PTV isolates collected between 2004 and 2009 in a wide territory in Spain. In order to characterize genetically the isolates, phylogeny reconstructions were made using maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference methods, based on the...
