Porcine rotavirus B as primary causative agent of diarrhea outbreaks in newborn piglets
Abstract Rotavirus (RV) is considered a major cause of acute viral gastroenteritis in young animals. RV is classified into nine species, five of which have been identified in pigs. Most studies worldwide have highlighted diarrhoea outbreaks caused by RVA, which is considered the most important RV sp...
