Grau-Roma L, Fraile L, Segalés J.
Post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) emerged as a significant disease affecting pig production in the 1990s although the causal agent, porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), and the disease itself, had existed in swine for many years prior to...

Prevalence of Porcine Circovirus Types 2a and b in Pigs with and without Post-Weaning Multi-Systemic Wasting Syndrome.
Kim D, Ha Y, Oh Y, Chae C.
The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of porcine circovirus (PCV) type 2 genotypes in pigs with post-weaning multi-systemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and in pigs that that did not have the disease. Nested PCR was used to analyse tissue...

Systemic Toxoplasmosis and Concurrent Porcine Circovirus-2 Infection in a Pig
S. Klein, M. Wendt, W. Baumgärtner and P. Wohlsein
