Canine Parvovirus Types 2c and 2b Circulating in North American Dogs in 2006 and 2007

Parvovirus is the most common viral cause of diarrhea in young puppies. Based on the analysis of a partial VP2 sequence of 54 samples, canine parvovirus type 2c (CPV-2c) (n = 26), CPV-2b (n = 25), and CPV-2 (n = 3) were detected in the United States. The American CPV-2b isolates have unique codons (...

Summary:Parvovirus is the most common viral cause of diarrhea in young puppies.

The American CPV-2b isolates have unique codons (494 and 572) in VP2.
