Our findings suggested that the real-time RT-PCR assay developed in this study can be applied for routine PeV-A identification. We detected PeV-A1, 4 and 6 genotypes in the 728 faecal samples using this method. Additionally, we believe that our results will serve as a foundation for further studies on PeV-As and facilitate the expansion of the gene sequence information available in GenBank.
