No experimental evidence of co-feeding transmission of african swine fever virus between Ornithodoros soft ticks

To explore underlying mechanisms of ASFV vecto- rial transmission, in this study we compared the behav- ior of several strains of the virus in three Ornithodoros species

As already described, European soft ticks (Ornithodoros erraticus and Ornithodoros verrucosus) were not able to transmit African swine fever virus by biting pigs although these

Ticks representing the five possible infection pairs listed above were tested for their ability to transmit ASFV to naïve pigs ( Fig 1 ). In each trial, the control group was

The aim of this study was to determine the ability of 2 soft ticks species, respectively from the Iberian Peninsula (O. verrucosus), to transmit 3 highly virulent ASFV strains

In addition, depletion of genes involved in the evasion of the immune response, NL (alternatively named DP71L) gene, and multiple members of multigene families 360 and 505

Further and more comprehensive research is needed including testing of wild boar samples from the whole country and from a few hunting seasons on anti- body and virus presence to
