The aim of this study was the assessment of the genetic variance of Derzy’s disease (GPV) strains isolated from cases occurring in Poland. The nucleotide and predicted aminoacid sequences of VP2 and VP3 surface proteins of the Polish GPV strains were compared with other strains previously isolated in Hungary, France, Germany, China and Taiwan. The observed genetic variance of the aminoacid sequence within the group of Polish strains was low and reached 5% of the overall analysed sequence. Considerable differences in aminoacid sequence were found in the case of Polish field GPV strains and Muscovy duck parvovirus strain MDPV FM which was also analysed in this study. The conducted investigations confirmed the presupposition that Polish GPV strains and strains previously isolated in Hungary and France share a common origin.
