The samples collected from cats showing clinical signs suspected for feline panleukopenia infection were confirmed using various molecular techniques and virus isolation. The suspected samples were confirmed using feline parvovirus specific primers. The partial VP2 gene was submitted to GenBank for the first time in India (Accession number JQ684660.1). The PCR positive samples were further amplified using full length FPV VP2 gene specific primers and sequenced. The blast analysis revealed that the local field isolates of FPV showed 99 % homology with other FPV sequences available in the GenBank. The evidence for occurrence of feline panleukopenia infection in cats in Tamil Nadu, India was further confirmed by host specific nucleotides present in the VP2 gene region as well as virus isolation in A72 cell line.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
