Publication Date: January 1, 2009
Reference: Veterinary Microbiology 137 (2009) 354–358
Country: Spain

Summary:

The goal of this study was to gain insight into the potential role of the sow in transmitting TTV to piglets and the
infection dynamics of both swine TTV genogroups (TTV1 and TTV2) during the lactation period. The number of sows delivering stillborns and the mean number of stillborns per sow tended to be higher in the TTV2 infected sows and old parity sows had a higher percentage of TTV1 infected 1-week-old piglets.
