Abstract

Porcine noroviruses and sapoviruses belong to the family Caliciviridae and are rarely reported in European countries. In this study, swine stools from a region representative of northern Europe were screened for these viruses by RT-PCR. Both porcine noroviruses and sapoviruses were detected, showing their circulation in this region. The porcine norovirus strains were genetically related to genotype 19 strains in the genogroup II of the genus Norovirus. The porcine sapovirus strains were genetically related to the porcine enteric calicivirus Cowden reference strain and to newly described porcine strains in the genus Sapovirus.
