Current Insights into Porcine Bocavirus (PBoV) and Its Impact on the Economy and Public Health

Abstract

Porcine Bocavirus (PBoV) is an emerging viral pathogen in swine that has not received significant attention despite its potential impact. This review aims to fill the knowledge gap by analyzing the existing literature on PBoV, including its genome structure, discovery, classification, detection methods, and pathogenesis. This review also explores the public health implications and economic impact of PBoV, such as decreased productivity, increased veterinary costs, and trade restrictions. By enhancing understanding of PBoV, this review seeks to aid in its prevention and control, thereby mitigating its economic impact on the swine industry.
