AASV Foundation Funded Research: Final Report Available

January 18, 2024 — AASV Staff

In 2018, the AASV Foundation granted $30,000 to Dr Jianqiang Zhang and co-investigators at Iowa State University to fund the project "Refining PRRSV classification system and sequencing reports to better characterize genetic diversity and relatedness of PRRSV." The project is complete and the final report is available.

The goal of the project was for the classification system to provide a basis for further characterization of the antigenic relationship and cross-protection between different PRRSV-2 lineages in future studies.

Final Report: Refining PRRSV classification system and sequencing reports to better characterize genetic diversity and relatedness of PRRSV

The research has been published in Microbiology Spectrum: Refining PRRSV-2 genetic classification based on global ORF5 sequences and investigation of their geographic distributions and temporal changes

A podcast related to PRRSV-2 ORF5-based genetic classification system with information derived from this research is available HERE.
