Comprehensive Analysis of Codon Usage Patterns in Chinese Porcine Circoviruses Based on Their Major Protein-Coding Sequences

Porcine circoviruses (PCVs) are distributed in swine herds worldwide and represent a threat to the health of domestic pigs and the profits of the swine industry. Currently, four PCV species, including PCV-1, PCV-2, PCV-3 and PCV-4, have been identified in China. Considering the ubiquitous characteri...
