Draft Genome Sequence Analysis of the Genotype II African Swine Fever Virus from India.

African swine fever virus (ASFV) entered the northeastern (NE) part of India early in 2020, causing huge economic loss to the piggery sector. Here, we are presenting a brief report on the draft genome sequence of an ASFV strain ABTCVSCK_ASF007 from Assam state of NE India belonging to genotype II.

First complete genome characterization of duck plague virus from India.

In this study, we report the complete genome sequencing of the Duck plague virus from India for the first time. The sequencing was done on the MinION nanopore sequencer from Oxford Nanopore Technologies. The closest relative is the European strain 2085v, with 99.

Detection of coinfection of a divergent subgroup of genotype I Japanese encephalitis virus in multiple classical swine fever virus outbreaks in pigs of Assam, India.

A retrospective investigation of pig tissue samples from different classical swine fever virus (CSFV) outbreaks was undertaken employing RT-PCR for possible coinfection with other swine viruses. Four samples from three different outbreaks were found to be coinfected with Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV). Phylogenetic analysis was done based on complete E gene sequenced from all four coinfected samples.
