Molecular Characterization of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus in Korea from 2018 to 2022
2023
Overview
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is an endemic disease in the Republic of Korea. Surveillance of PRRS virus (PRRSV) types is critical to tailor control measures. This study collected 5062 serum and tissue samples between 2018 and 2022. Open reading frame 5 (ORF5) sequences suggest that subgroup A (42%) was predominant, followed by lineage 1 (21%), lineage 5 (14%), lineage Korea C (LKC) (9%), lineage Korea B (LKB) (6%), and subtype 1C (5%). Highly virulent lineages 1 (NADC30/34/MN184) and 8 were also detected. These viruses typically mutate or recombine with other viruses. ORF5 and non-structural protein 2 (NSP2) deletion patterns were less variable in the PRRSV-1. Several strains belonging to PRRSV-2 showed differences in NSP2 deletion and ORF5 sequences. Similar vaccine-like isolates to the PRRSV-1 subtype 1C and PRRSV-2 lineage 5 were also found. The virus is evolving independently in the field and has eluded vaccine protection. The current vaccine that is used in Korea offers only modest or limited heterologous protection. Ongoing surveillance to identify the current virus strain in circulation is necessary to design a vaccine. A systemic immunization program with region-specific vaccinations and stringent biosecurity measures is required to reduce PRRSV infections in the Republic of Korea.
