Deletion of the CD2 Gene in the Virulent ASFV Congo Strain Affects Viremia in Domestic Swine, but Not the Virulence [PDF]

Animals, 2023
African swine fever (ASF) is an infectious disease that causes the most significant losses to the pig industry. One of the effective methods for combating this disease could be the development of vaccines.

A quadruple fluorescence quantitative PCR method for the identification of wild strains of african swine fever and gene-deficient strains [PDF]

Virology Journal, 2023
Background Originating in Africa, African swine fever (ASF) was introduced to China in 2018. This acute and highly virulent infectious disease affects domestic pigs. The World Organization for Animal Health has listed it as a statutory reportable disease,

Seroimmunotyping of African swine fever virus [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The extreme genetic and immunobiological heterogeneity exhibited by the African swine fever virus (ASFV) has been a significant impediment in the development of an efficacious vaccine against this disease.

Resurgence of Type III IGR Between I73R and I329L in Wild Boars With African Swine Fever in South Korea in 2023 [PDF]

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The African swine fever virus (ASFV) causes African swine fever (ASF), a highly lethal disease affecting domestic pigs and wild boars. Since its initial outbreak in October 2019 in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi Province, ASF has continued to spread in South Korea.

An Update on African Swine Fever Virology [PDF]

Viruses, 2019
Animal diseases constitute a continuing threat to animal health, food safety, national economy, and the environment. Among those, African swine fever (ASF) is one of the most devastating viruses affecting pigs and wild suids due to the lack of vaccine or

The deletion of the EP402R and MGF505/360 genes attenuates a genotype I/II recombinant ASFV but fails to confer complete protection against homologous or genotype II challenge in pigs [PDF]

Emerging Microbes and Infections
African swine fever (ASF), a pig disease caused by ASFV, is highly contagious and often lethal. The recent emergence of novel ASFV with I/II genomic recombination has posed significant challenges to global ASF prevention and control.

From structure prediction to function: defining the domain on the African swine fever virus CD2v protein required for binding to erythrocytes [PDF]

mBio
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a high-consequence pathogen posing a substantial threat to global food security. This large DNA virus encodes more than 150 open reading frames, many of which are uncharacterized.

Highly lethal genotype I and II recombinant African swine fever viruses detected in pigs [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2023
African swine fever virus (ASFV) poses a great threat to the global pig industry and food security. Currently, 24 ASFV genotypes have been reported but it is unclear whether recombination of different genotype viruses occurs in nature.

Emergence of Microvariants of African Swine Fever Virus Genotype II in the Asia–Pacific [PDF]

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a highly stable DNA virus showing little genetic variation among genomes. This genetic stability has often posed challenges in tracking variants and identifying potential transmission chains as ASFV spreads into new regions.
