Viral species involved in porcine enteric disease +complex (PEDC) include rotaviruses, coronaviruses, picornaviruses, astroviruses +and pestiviruses among others. The virome of three groups of swine samples +submitted to the Kansas State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory for +routine testing were assessed, namely, a Rotavirus A positive (RVA) group, a +Rotavirus co-infection (RV) group and a Rotavirus Negative (RV Neg) group. All +groups were designated by qRT-PCR results testing for Porcine Rotavirus A, B, C +and H such that samples positive for RVA only went in the RVA group, samples +positive for >1 rotavirus went in the RV group and samples negative for all were +grouped in the RVNeg group. All of the animals had clinical enteric disease +resulting in scours and swollen joints/lameness, enlarged heart and/or a cough. +All samples were metagenomic sequenced and analyzed for viral species +composition that identified 14 viral species and eight bacterial viruses/phages. +Sapovirus and Escherichia coli phages were found at a high prevalence in RVA and +RV samples but were found at low or no prevalence in the RV Neg samples. +Picobirnavirus was identified at a high proportion and prevalence in RV Neg and +RV samples but at a low prevalence in the RVA group. A sequence analysis of the +possible host of Picobirnaviruses revealed fungi as the most likely host. +Non-rotaviral diversity was highest in RVA samples followed by RV then RV Neg +samples. Various sequences were extracted from the sample reads and a +phylogenetic update was provided showing a high prevalence of G9 and P[23] RVA +genotypes. These data are important for pathogen surveillance and control +measures
