Abstract excerpt
This result, for the first time, demonstrates that under swine interferon-β (swIFN-β) immune pressure molecular variation of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) accelerates. PRRSV-A1 strain was continuously propagated in Marc-145 cells primed with swIFN-β for 20 passages to develop RRRSV-A1βf20 strains while PRRSV-A1f20 was control without swIFN-β respectively. NSP2, ORF3, ORF5 and ORF6...
