Control of African swine fever virus by siRNA [PDF]
African Swine Fever (ASF) is a highly contagious, viral disease of pigs caused by an Asfivirus. It can cause up to 100% of mortality in domestic pigs and European wild boars, although varying degrees of virulence have been shown.

Evaluation of the epidemiological importance of classical swine fever infected, E2 sub-unit marker vaccinated animals with RT-nPCR positive blood samples [PDF]
<p>It has been demonstrated that pigs that have been double vaccinated with an E2 sub-unit marker vaccine and that are infected with classical swine fever virus (CSFV) through a natural contact infection may react positive in a CSFV detecting RT ...

AFRICAN SWINE FEVER VIRUS: USE OF GENETIC MARKERS IN ANALYSIS OF ITS ROUTES OF SPREAD
At present no effective measures for specific prevention and treatment of African swine fever have been developed. The control strategy for the disease is designed for rapid diagnosis of infected animals with subsequent slaughter and decontamination ...

African Swine Fever Virus, Tanzania, 2010–2012
To the Editor: African swine fever (ASF) is a highly contagious and deadly hemorrhagic disease of domestic pigs caused by African swine fever virus (ASFV), a double-strand DNA virus of the family Asfarviridae and genus Asfivirus (1). Twenty-two ASFV genotypes (I–XXII) have been identified on the basis of nucleotide sequencing of the variable 3′-end of ...

Study on the role of the sylvatic cycle of African swine fever in Senegal [PDF]
It is generally believed that African swine fever (ASF) virus in Sub-Saharan Africa is maintained in nature by warthogs (Phacochoerus africanus) and soft ticks from the genus Ornithodoros (Penrith et al., 2004).

African swine fever virus replication and genomics
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a large icosahedral DNA virus which replicates predominantly in the cytoplasm of infected cells. The ASFV double-stranded DNA genome varies in length from about 170 to 193 kbp depending on the isolate and contains between 150 and 167 open reading frames. These are closely spaced and read from both DNA strands.

Cholesterol affects African swine fever virus infection [PDF]
African swine fever virus (ASFV) enters cells by receptor mediated endocytosis and requires a fusion event between the viral envelope and the limiting membrane of the endosome at low pH. In order to investigate the role of cholesterol in the early stages
