Genetic diversity and phylogenetic analysis of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus in southern China from 2007 to 2014.

ABSTRACT: Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) has a high degree of genetic variation. In this study, we characterized the genetic variation and evolutionary relationships among circulating PRRSV strains in southern China. We analyzed 29 NSP2 strains and 150 ORF5 strains from clinical samples collected in southern China during 2007-2014. The alignment results showed that the nucleotide identity similarities of the two genes among these strains were 80.5%-99.7% and 80.9%-100%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on the NSP2 gene showed that highly pathogenic (HP)-PRRSV was still the dominant virus in southern China from 2013 to 2014. Compared with reference strains CH-1a and VR-2332, the field strain 131101-GD-SHC, which shared high homology with JXA1-P170, had a novel 12 amino acid deletion at position 499-510. Phylogenetic analysis based on the ORF5 gene showed that HP-PRRSV, VR2332-like strains, and QYYZ-like strains were simultaneously circulating in southern China from 2007 to 2014, suggesting that, in recent years, the type 2 PRRSV was more diverse in southern China. In conclusion, mutations in the decoy epitope and primary neutralizing epitope could be markers of viral evolution and used to study evolutionary relationships among PRRSV strains in China.

Project description:BackgroundPorcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) has leaded to an enormous loss per year to the swine industry, its etiology porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a highly mutated virus in pigs. To fully understand the genetic characteristics of PRRSV genome in South China, this study collected the lung samples infected with PRRSV in Guangdong and Hainan province from 2014 to 2015 and tried to isolate the PRRSV. Finally, the complete genomes of isolated strains were sequenced and analyzed.MethodsVirus isolation was performed in MARC-145 cells. The 13 fragments of PRRSV genome were amplified by RT-PCR and the complete PRRSV genome sequence was obtained by SeqMan program of DNASTAR7.0 software. Nucleotide and deduced amino acid (AA) sequences of NSP2 and ORF5 were aligned using the MegAlign program of DNASTAR7.0 software to determine sequence homology. A phylogenetic tree was constructed using MEGA5.2 software with the neighbor-joining method to analyze the evolutionary relationship.Results11 PRRSV strains were isolated in South China from 2014 to 2015. All the isolated strains clustered into subgenotype V along with the HP-PRRSV representative strains JXA1, HuN4 and JXwn06. The subgenotype V was furtherly divided into two groups. AA sequence alignment analysis indicated that all the isolated strains had 1 AA deletion and 29 AA continuous deletion at position 481 and 533-561. Notably, GDHY strain had another 120 AA continuous deletion at position 629-748. All the isolated strains had an A137S mutation in the residue A137 of GP5 which was considered to differentiate vaccine strains. All the isolated strains had a L39I mutation in the primary neutralizing epitope (PNE) of GP5. Except GDHZ had a N34T mutation, all the other isolated strains had conserved N30, N44 and N51 glycosylation sites in the four potential N-glycosylation sites (N30, N34, N44 and N51) of GP5.ConclusionsOur study showed that the prevalent strains in this region were highly pathogenic PRRS virus-like. Moreover, one new strain having another 120 amino acids continuous deletion except the discontinuous 30 (29+1) amino acids deletion in NSP2 region had emerged. Besides, the isolated strains had extensive amino acids substitutions in the putative signal, extravirion and intravirion regions of GP5. These results showed that PRRSV has undergone extensive variation in South China, providing some theoretical basis for researching effective vaccince to better controling the PRRSV in this area.
