Can lineage tracking explain PRRS outbreaks in pigs?

Original: Does knowing lineage give insight after a PRRS outbreak?

The swine industry publication National Hog Farmer is examining whether tracing the lineage of pigs affected by PRRS, a costly viral disease in hog herds, can provide useful insight after an outbreak. The question is whether genetic lineage data helps farmers and veterinarians understand how the outbreak spread or how to respond, a topic of practical concern to producers managing herd health.

Why now: PRRS remains one of the most economically damaging diseases in pork production, so new approaches to outbreak analysis draw industry attention.
