摘要

Continued outbreaks of porcine epidemic diarrhea are causing serious economic losses to the swine industry in China. To monitor the prevalence, genetic mutations, and pathogenicity of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), 172 samples were collected from eight cities in Sichuan Province from 2020 to 2022. RT-PCR analysis revealed that 25.0% (43/172) of samples were positive for PEDV. Phylogenetic analysis of 17 S gene sequences (encoding the spike protein) showed that G2c was the main genotype circulating in Sichuan. One strain, Leshan-s-2020 (G2a), was identified as a recombinant resulting from inter-lineage recombination between the KM609212/LYG/2015 (G2a) and MianYang-s-2020 (G2a) strains in the S2 domain. In addition, the G2c strain YB2201, which was highly virulent in 4-day-old piglets, was successfully isolated. The results of this study enrich our understanding of the epidemiology of PEDV, the genetic characteristics and pathogenicity of the PEDV strains circulating in China, and the role of recombination in their evolution. These findings may contribute to the development of antigen detection reagents and vaccines.
