The application discloses a D type influenza virus isolate D / HY11 and application thereof in a mink infection model, and belongs to the field of biological medicines. The application takes the D type influenza virus isolate D / HY11 of an IDV northeast isolate as a research object, establishes a mink transmission model, evaluates the transmission dynamics characteristics of the strain among minks, identifies amino acid mutations possibly related to host adaptability through whole genome sequencing, analyzes the amino acid substitution on receptor affinity based on computer simulation of protein conformation and receptor molecule docking, explores the host adaptation evolution law of the virus in the transmission process, and provides an important scientific basis for early warning and prevention and control of a public health crisis possibly caused by the IDV.

The present disclosure is directed to novel porcine sapoviruses (SaV) isolates, including SaV serially propagated in cell culture, all of which are useful in the preparation of immunogenic compositions and vaccines for treating and preventing disease in swine. The disclosure further provides characterization of pathogenicity and cross-protective immunity of contemporary porcine SaV isolates in weaned pigs, demonstrating that prior exposure to homologous strains provides greater protection against viral shedding than heterologous strains.
