[Method] Primers and a probe were designed according to the conserved sequence of N gene in TGEV genome. After gradient dilution, the recombinant plasmid harboring the N gene was used as a standard for real-time PCR assay to establish the standard curve. [Re- sult] The results showed that the established real-time PCR assay exhibited a good linear relationship within the range of 102-10^10 copies/ul; the correlation coefficient was above 0.99 and the amplification efficiency ranged from 90% to 110%. The de- tection limit of real-time PCR assay for TGEV was 10 copies/μl, suggesting a high sensitivity; there was no cross reaction with other porcine viruses, indicating a good specificity; coefficients of variation within and among batches were lower than 3%, suggesting a good repeatability. The established real-time PCR method could be ap- plied in quantitative analysis and evaluation of the immune efficacy of TGEV vac- cines and detection of TGEV in clinical samples. [Conclusion] The TaqMan-based real-time PCR assay established in this study is highly sensitive and specific, which can provide technical means for the epidemiological survey of TGEV, development of TGEV vaccines and investigation of the pathogenesis of TGE.展开更多

Phylogenetic tree analysis based on the amino acid and nucleotide sequences of the S gene showed that the TGEV strains were divided into 3 clusters. TGEV TS showed a close evolutionary relationship to the American Miller cluster but had a 5' non-translated region (NTR) sequence closely related to the American Purdue cluster. Continued culture in different cell types indicated that TGEV TS virulence could be attenuated after fifty passages in Porcine kidney (PK-15) cells, and that the Porcine kidney cell line IB-RS-2 (IBRS) was not suitable for culture of the TGEV strain TS.展开更多
