Abstract excerpt
Porcine epidemic diarrhea has become pandemic in the Asian pig-breeding industry, causing significant economic loss. In the present study, 11 complete genomes of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) field isolates from China were determined and analyzed. Frequently occurring mutations were observed, which suggested that full understanding of the genomic and epidemiological characteristics is critical in the...
