Modelling control strategies against Classical Swine Fever: influence of traders and markets using static and temporal networks in Ecuador [PDF]

Preventive Veterinary Medicine Volume 205, August 2022, 105683, 2021
Classical swine fever (CSF) in Ecuador is prevalent since 1940, pig farming represents an important economic and cultural sector. Recently, the National Veterinary Service (NVS) has implemented individual identification of pigs, movement control and mandatory vaccination against CSF, looking for a future eradication. Our aim was to characterise the pig

Characterization of a Novel African Swine Fever Virus p72 Genotype II from Nigeria

Viruses, 2023
African swine fever (ASF) is a high-consequence transboundary hemorrhagic fever of swine. It continues to spread across the globe causing socio-economic issues and threatening food security and biodiversity. In 2020, Nigeria reported a major ASF outbreak,

Experimental pig-to-pig transmission dynamics for African swine fever virus, Georgia 2007/1 strain [PDF]

, 2015
African swine fever virus (ASFV) continues to cause outbreaks in domestic pigs and wild boar in Eastern European countries. To gain insights into its transmission dynamics, we estimated the pig-to-pig basic reproduction number (R 0) for the Georgia 2007 ...

African Swine Fever Virus Guanylyltransferase

Virology, 1993
The gene coding for the guanylyltransferase of African swine fever virus has been identified and sequenced. The gene, designated NP868R, is located within fragments EcoRI N' and D of the virus genome (BA71V strain) and encodes a protein with a predicted molecular mass of 99.9 kDa that shares significant similarity with the large subunit of both ...

Autophagy impairment by African swine fever virus

Journal of General Virology, 2021
African swine fever is a devastating disease of domestic swine and wild boar caused by a large double-stranded DNA virus that encodes for more than 150 open reading frames. There is no licensed vaccine for the disease and the most promising current candidates are modified live viruses that have been attenuated by deletion of virulence factors.

African swine fever virus morphogenesis

Virus Research, 2013
This review summarizes recent structural and molecular biology studies related to the morphogenesis of African swine fever virus (ASFV). ASFV possesses icosahedral morphology and is constituted by four concentric layers: the central nucleoid, the core shell, the inner envelope and the icosahedral capsid.
