| abstract |
The present invention provides novel nucleotide sequences, protein sequences, immunogenic compositions, vaccines, and methods for making and using the novel porcine parvovirus 5A (PPV5A), which in particular infects domesticated pigs. Such compositions and methods enable detection of infections caused by the novel virus, monitoring of genetic changes in wild and domesticated animals and viral sequences in the herd, and the manufacture and use of novel vaccines to protect animals from viral infection. |
