Abstract: This study was aimed to understand main viral pathogens infection situation and popular characteristics of piglet diarrhea,and provide scientific basis for effective prevention and control of piglet diarrhea in Guangxi.In this experiment,RT-PCR and PCR methods were used to detect the pathogens of PEDV,PoRV,TGEV,PDCoV,CSFV,PRRSV,PCV2 and PRV of 914 diarrhea samples of piglets from 366 large-scale pig farms in 14 cities in Guangxi from 2016 to 2019,and analyzed these viruses pathogens mixed infection situation and the differences of the positive rates in different years,seasons and regions.According to the survey results,PEDV,PDCoV,PRRSV,PoRV,PCV2,CSFV and PRV all had different degrees of infection,and the average positive rate of the samples were 59.74%,8.32%,7.77%,4.92%,3.72%,3.28% and 2.08%,respectively,and no TGEV was detected.The PEDV had no significant seasonal variations,it was high all the year round.The PEDV still existed in infected piglet diarrhea,even in hot summer.However,the PDCoV had significant seasonal variations,it occurred frequently in both spring and winter.The positive rate of PEDV was high in Guangxi,the single infection rate was up to 50.55%.There were also many cases of diarrhea mixed infection in piglets,among which double infection was more common,and there were also four kinds of infection.The results showed that there were 7 kinds of viral pathogens infecting piglets in different degrees in Guangxi,among which the viral diarrhea caused by PEDV was particularly serious,and the positive rate of new PDCoV was second only to that of PEDV,so it was necessary to pay attention to and strengthen the prevention and control of new PDCoV.
