The Swine Disease Eradication Center is proud to present another episode of “Processing the Litter-ature”: a podcast in which peer-reviewed papers are docked, clipped and supplemented with a field perspective.
In this episode, Dr. Igor Paploski and Dr. Albert Rovira discuss the paper “Phylogenetic Structure and Sequential Dominance of Sub-Lineages of PRRSV Type-2 Lineage 1 in the United States.”
This is our Friday rubric: every week a new Science Page from the Bob Morrison’s Swine Health Monitoring Project. The previous editions of the science page are available on our website.
MSHMP Researchers Mariana Kikuti, Xiaomei Yue, Marcello Melini, Emily Geary, and Cesar Corzo break down PRRS prevalence among two cohorts of participating farms in this week’s Science Page.

Today’s Science Page brings together researchers from three continents! Onyekachukwu Osemeke, Eduardo Costa, Vinicius Weide, Swaminathan Jayaraman, Gustavo Silva, and Daniel Linhares share how to estimate PRRS prevalence at the piglet level in a farrowing room based on the results of family oral fluid testing.
