Re-evaluation of ASF genotypes reveals existence of only six distinct p72 groups
Study proposes that the current twenty-five genotypes should be reduced to only six genotypes.

Epidemiological assessment of African swine fever spread in the Dominican Republic
These results provide critical information on the current state of the ASF epidemic in the Dominican Republic.
Effect of supplementing sows and piglets with Bacillus spp. under E. coli challenge
Bacillus spp. supplementation to sow and creep-feed diets may enhance post-weaning piglet health and performance.
Survival of a surrogate ASF virus-like algal virus in feed matrices using a 23-day commercial United States truck transport model
Results demonstrate that ASFV-like nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses can retain viability in swine feed matrices during long-term transport across the continental United States.
Vaccination against swine influenza in pigs causes different drift evolutionary patterns upon experimental infection and reduces likelihood of genomic reassortments
The study further emphasized the vast evolutionary capacity of swine IAV, under natural infection and vaccination pressure scenarios.
First detection of porcine circovirus 4 (PCV-4) in Europe
The relatively high prevalence in wild boar and the low prevalence in Iberian pigs suggest wild boar as a potential viral reservoir.
Self-administration of a Salmonella vaccine by domestic pigs
This technology could benefit commercial pig production while providing an enriched behavioral environment.
Dysbiosis of gut microbiota and intestinal barrier dysfunction in pigs with pulmonary inflammation induced by Mycoplasma hyorhinis infection
Lung inflammation induced by M. hyorhinis infection can contribute to the dysbiosis of gut microbiota and intestinal barrier dysfunction.
333 Emerging voices - Morphometric gross characterization of the heart of healthy and diseased pigs of different ages
This work establishes the parameters of normality in various cardiac parameters of healthy pigs and compares them with those of diseased animals. Final thesis at the Department of Veterinary Medicine, UAB, Spain, advised by Joaquím Segalés.
333 Emerging voices - Comparative histopathological findings of diseased pigs infected with porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) and 3 (PCV-3)
PCV-2 and PCV-3 associated disease outcomes are distinguishable at a histopathological level. Final thesis at the College of Veterinary Medicine, UAB, Spain, advised by Joaquím Segalés.
This protein is crucial for African swine fever virus replication
SLA-DM plays a crucial role during early steps of ASFV infection.
Automated detection of behavioral changes associated with the post-weaning transition in pigs
The approach is capable of automatically monitoring several different behaviors of a group of pigs at the same time.
Characterization of two porcine parainfluenza virus 1 isolates and human parainfluenza virus 1 infection in weaned nursery pigs
This study suggests potential pathogenesis differences between PPIV1 isolates. HPIV1 is capable of replicating in nursery pigs after experimental inoculation.
Full-scale industrial phage trial targeting Salmonella on pork carcasses
Implementation of phage application in industrial settings can be used as an additional strategy to control foodborne pathogens.
The effect of gilt flow management during acclimation on Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae detection
A similar M. hyopneumoniae detection pattern was observed regardless of gilt flow.
African swine fever virus transmembrane protein pEP84R guides core assembly
Findings unveil a key regulatory mechanism for ASFV morphogenesis and identify a relevant novel target for the development of therapeutic tools.
