Genotyping based on complete coding sequences of porcine circovirus type 3 is stable and reliable

Porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3) is a newly identified virus, which is associated with PDNS-like clinical signs, reproductive failure, cardiac and multiorgan inflammation. However, the genotype of PCV3 is still controversial. Here, we reconstructed the phylogenies of 194 complete coding sequences of PCV3 using five different phylogenetic methods. The results showed five trees reconstructed using different methods displayed similar phylogenies, indicating genotyping based on complete coding sequences of PCV3 is stable and accurate.
