The rTGEV-RS-SPEDV vaccine candidate was also attenuated in three-week-old animals that were used to evaluate the protection conferred by this virus, compared with the protection induced by infection with a virulent PEDV US strain (PEDV-NVSL). Interestingly, Viruses 2019, 11, 682 9 of 18 when viral RNA was isolated from feces of 21-day-old piglets at seven days post-vaccination (see below) and rTGEV-RS-SPEDV virus was sequenced, the same modifications were observed. An attenuated chimeric rTGEV virus expressing the ectodomain of a virulent US PEDV S protein (rTGEV-RS-SPEDV) was engineered as vaccine candidate for PEDV and evaluated in a young piglet model system.
