South Africa’s Pork Industry Faces Threat from US Trade Choice
South Africa risks its pork industry to protect citrus exports as US trade demands market access for pork despite PRRS disease concerns.
The implications of the PRRSV recombination dilemma
PRRS control measures also reduce the opportunities for different wild-type viruses to recombine and create more aggressive strains.
PRRS Molecular diagnostics: when sequencing only 4% is not enough
Genetic mutation and evolution of PRRSV can occur across all genes. Unlike ORF5, which only represents about 4% of the PRRSV genome, NGS can recover a whole PRRSV genome to be used in epidemiological investigations.
Comparison of a novel rapid sampling method to serum and tonsil scraping to detect PRRSV in acutely infected sows
PIC receives FDA approval for technology used to breed PRRS-resistant pigs
PIC is among the first to receive approval for the use of gene editing in commercial livestock in the U.S.
From 32% to 68% of PRRS negative farms after 3 years of the Danish national PRRS reduction strategy
The first three years of the Danish PRRS reduction strategy have shown that it is possible to control and reduce the prevalence of PRRS in Danish pig production.
Rosalia is here! How do we deal with a highly virulent PRRS outbreak on the farm?
In the first two months, the outbreak caused more than 600 abortions and more than 150 sow deaths, destroying the weekly batch structure.

Gene editing: What is it? What can it bring to the swine industry?
Gene editing represents a significant technological advancement that we must thoroughly understand due to its potential impact on the swine industry. Will there be animals resistant to viral diseases?
Sri Lanka bans the sale of pork to stop ASF and PRRS spread
Sri Lanka has temporarily prohibited the slaughter, transport, and sale of pigs to prevent disease spread.
