The clinical symptoms caused by PEAV in newborn piglets are similar to that by other porcine enteric pathogens such as PEDV and transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), which include vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, and mortality rate as high as 90% (Gong et al., 2017; Zhou et al., 2018b) . To develop a live-attenuated vaccine for PEAV, we generated candidates via serial cell passage of the parental PEAV GDS04 strain and evaluated the pathogenicity of PEAV P15, P67 and P100 in 5-day-old newborn piglets. To generate an attenuated PEAV vaccine candidate, PEAV GDS04 was passaged regularly to a total of 100 passages in Vero cells and the selected passages including P15, P67 and P100 were characterized by sequencing and analyzing the complete genome (Fig. 1) . ./cache/cord-277187-rcxjjxw3.txt ./txt/cord-277187-rcxjjxw3.txt
