Abstract:
We investigated the prevalence and genetic variation of porcine pseudorabies virus(PRV)in Hunan Province.A total of 18 861 serum samples and 1 725 suspected PRV-infected tissue sam-ples were collected from Hunan Province from 2021 to 2022.ELISA and qPCR assays were used to detect PRV-gE antibodies in serum samples and the PRV-gE nucleic acids in tissue samples.The positive rates of samples in different years and seasons were analyzed correspondingly.Moreover,the gC gene sequences of 15 PRV-positive samples were amplified,sequenced,and analyzed.The results showed that 2 004 serum and 56 tissue samples tested positive,with an average positive rate of 10.74%and 3.25%,respectively.The sequence analysis showed that the nucleotide and ami-no acid sequence identities of the gC gene among 15 PRV-positive samples were 98.4%-100.0%and 98.8%-100.0%,respectively.Further genetic evolution analysis showed that 13 PRV strains belonged to the same branch with the PRV variants,while two strains were clustered into the same branch with the classical PRV strains.The above results indicate that PRV remains widely prevalent in different regions of Hunan Province,and the variant strain is the dominant epi-demic subtype,which provided a scientific basis for exploring the epidemiological characteristics of PRV and the development of vaccines against PR in Hunan Province.
