Abstract excerpt
The limited knowledge on the role of many of the approximately 170 proteins encoded by African swine fever virus restricts progress toward vaccine development. Previously, the DP148R gene was deleted from the genome of genotype I virulent Benin 97/1 isolate. This virus, BeninΔDP148R, induced transient moderate clinical signs after immunization and high levels of protection against challenge. However, the...
