  1. dpi, days post-inoculation; clinical signs are either present (+) or absent (−); for each entry in the table the two scores represents the presence (+) or absence (−) of viral gene detected by RT-PCR in the two pigs of each experimental group; * indicated the group in which the clinical sign of the pig is only pyrexia.
