Distribution and persistence of 4 different strains of transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE) virus in newborn piglets were compared. The piglets inoculated with high-passaged TO-163 strain did not show any clinical signs of TGE on any days postinoculation (DPI), but the piglets inoculated with 1 of the other 3 strains, SH-14, SH-164 or TO-16, had soft feces or diarrhea. In the latter cases, the virus was isolated mainly from respiratory organs, lymph nodes and digestive tract on any DIP, but was rearely detected in the digestive tract of piglets inoculated with the TO-163 strain. The frequency of virus-recovery from the tissues was the highest till 4 DPI in all of the piglets inoculated with 1 of the 4 virus strains and it was markedly reduced thereafter in the piglets inoculated with high-passaged strains. The TO-163 strain was subjected to serial passage in newborn piglets for 7 passages. There was no evidence of regained pathogenicity with advance in passage. Detection of virus was restricted to lymph nodes and lung of these piglets. In gnotobiotic piglets inoculated with the TO-163 strain, frequent virus recovery and high titers of virus from the tissues were obtained on up to the 4th DPI. The viruses in high titer were found in the digestive tract of some of the piglets; none showed any clinical signs of TGE.
