Research Question
- The mechanisms responsible for animal survival to infection are not well understood
Research Gaps and Challenges
- Investigate the mechanisms responsible for animal survival to infection
State Of the Art
- Homologous protective immunity develops in pigs surviving acute infection with moderately virulent or experimentally attenuated variants of ASFV. These animals develop long-term resistance to homologous, but rarely to heterologous, virus challenge
