PRRS virus (PRRSV) has undergone rapid evolution and resulted in immense economic losses worldwide. In the present study, a PRRSV strain named FJ0908 causing high abortion rate (25%) and mortality (40%) was detected in a swine herd in China. To determine if a new PRRSV genotype had emerged, we characterized the genetic characteristics of FJ0908. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that FJ0908 was related to 1-7-4-like strains circulating in the United States since 2014. Furthermore, the ORF5 sequenc ...[more]
