Alerts to emerging ASFV variants in Korean swine; leaves open needs for expanded surveillance and vaccine matching.
Observational (n=8)
The study identifies novel genetic variants of the African swine fever virus circulating in South Korean pig farms, emphasizing the need for enhanced genetic surveillance.
Cho et al. (2025) conducted an observational in African swine fever (n=8). African swine fever virus variants was evaluated on Genetic characterization of ASFV isolates. Genetic analysis of eight ASFV isolates from South Korean pig farms revealed the emergence of novel multigene family 505_9R/10R-V variations in four isolates and an intergenic region III variant in one isolate.
