Abstract

Classical swine fever (CSF) is a highly contagious virus infection of swine caused by classical swine fever virus (CSFV). CSF infections cause significant economic impact and hardship throughout Asia. Improved understanding of the epidemiology of an infectious agent can provide options for the control of disease. Developments in technology have allowed the simplified PCR-mediated amplification of targeted genomic regions and the rapid deduction of nucleotide sequences which can be related to the geographical origin of individual disease outbreaks. This review describes the comparative analysis techniques and molecular epidemiology of classical swine fever viruses in the Asian context.
