In this study we reported epidemiological data on the PrV seroprevalence rate and its associated risk factors among wild boar populations under different management regimes: i) free-range population hunted in the Piedmont region; ii) enclosed population living in a Regional Park La Mandria, which includes 36 km2 of fenced area located in the proximity of the alpine chain, and is mainly characterised by grazing meadows, cereal fields, and deciduous forests (27% of the surface), with an estimated boar density of 18 animals/km2. keywords: aujeszky; boar; disease; italy; piedmont; population; prevalence; prv; range; region; virus; wild cache: vetit-1006.pdf plain text: vetit-1006.txt item: #3 of 175 id: vetit-1009 author: Czyżewska‑Dors, Ewelina Barbara; Dors, Arkadiusz; Pomorska-Mól, Małgorzata; Podgórska, Katarzyna; Pejsak, Zygmunt title: Efficacy of the Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) vaccination under field conditions date: 2019-01-04 words: 4018 flesch: 51 summary: ADWG, nursery mortality, and overall, post‑weaning mortality, were slightly better in herds practicing PCV2 vaccination in 3‑week‑old piglets, although without statistical significance (p  >  0.05).
