Here, we report the complete genomic sequence of two novel Chinese virulent PRRSV variants with additional NSP2-gene deletions, which will help us understand the molecular and evolutionary characteristics of PRRSV in Asia.Free content from ASM.Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virusComplete genome sequencePRRSVChinaComplete genome sequence of two novel Chinese virulent porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus variantsArticle (publisher version)
