Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to molecular biology detection technology of pigs resistant to PRRS, in particular to a method for screening pigs resistant to PRRS based on the expression level of mannose receptor MRC-1 gene. Background technique
[0002] Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), commonly known as "PRRS", is caused by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), a member of the family Arteriviridae of the order Nidoviridae. There are equine arteritis virus, murine lactate dehydrogenase virus, and simian hemorrhagic fever virus. The disease mainly causes reproductive and respiratory symptoms of pigs, manifested as interstitial pneumonia and mummified sow abortion, which causes huge economic losses to the pig industry all over the world every year. A high fever outbreak occurred in China in 2007. The disease spread rapidly across the country. More than 2 million pigs were infected and 400,000 pigs died. The disease was...
