Warrants enhanced surveillance for virulent ASFV strains in Eurasian pigs; leaves open the insertion's role in pathogenicity.
ASFV isolates circulating in Russia and South Ossetia between 2016 and 2018 are highly virulent, causing acute or subacute fatal disease in pigs regardless of the infection route.
Vlasov et al. (2020) studied African swine fever. African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) isolates vs. Phosphate-buffered saline was evaluated on Clinical course, mortality, and virus accumulation. ASFV isolates from Russia and South Ossetia caused acute or subacute fatal disease in pigs with blood virus titers of 6.5 to 7.5 lg HAU50/cm3, with central Russian isolates showing a unique 10-bp insertion.
