porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, coronavirus, Viruses, Transmissible gastroenteritis virus, porcine respiratory coronavirus, recombinant coronavirus
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) has been detected sporadically in Italy since the 1990s. We report the phylogenetic relationship of swine enteric coronaviruses collected in Italy during 2007–2014 and identify a drastic shift in PEDV strain variability and a new swine enteric coronavirus generated by recombination of transmissible gastroenteritis virus and PEDV.
