Molecular detection and genetic characterization of kobuviruses and astroviruses in asymptomatic local pigs in East Africa

In this study, swine fecal specimens (n = 251) collected from nursing and weaned piglets raised under smallholder production systems were screened for the presence of kobuviruses by RT-PCR. Porcine kobuviruses were detected in 13.1 % (33/251) of the samples. We demonstrated that porcine kobuvirus in...
