The use of live homologous vaccines to protect against lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) infection requires the use of molecular tools to differentiate between infected and vaccinated animals (DIVA). In this study, the commercial real-time PCR assays; ID Gene™ LSD DIVA Triplex kit and Bio-T kit LSD - DIVA, as well as published assays targeting the GPCR gene (Journal of Virological Methods, 249, 48-57) and ORF008 and ORF126 (Sel'skokhozyaistvennaya Biologiya, 54, 347-358) were evaluated. These assays correctly identified classical field isolates (European lineage) and vaccine (Neethling vaccine). In contrast, when tested using vaccine-like recombinant viruses, the commercial and published assays were not able to correctly identify recombinant isolates. At the same time, the recombinant viruses were detected as either field and/or vaccine, or not detected at all depending on the assay. The different gene sequences present in recombinant viruses cause these DIVA assays to incorrectly assign recombinant viruses as either a field or vaccine virus. This observation has implications for using these assays and for identification of LSDV vaccine.

Background: Despite numerous genetic studies on Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV), many strains from the Middle East remain misclassified or unclassified. Genotype 1 (GI-1) is found globally, while genotype 23 (GI-23) has emerged as the predominant genotype in the Middle East region, evolving continuously through inter- and intra-genotypic recombination. The GI-23 genotype is now enzootic in Europe and Asia.

Virus-host protein interaction is critical for successful completion of viral replication cycles. As the largest nonstructural protein (NSP) of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), NSP2 plays multiple and critical roles in viral replication, antiviral immunity, cellular tropism and virulence. An interactome of this protein with host proteins would be instrumental in full understanding of these multifunctional roles.

The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular characteristics and pathogenicity of recently isolated ILTV strains from China, thereby augmenting our understanding of its prevalence. The complete genome sequences of seven ILTV strains obtained from China between 2015 and 2019 were determined by high-throughput sequencing. Phylogenetic analysis showed that six isolates (SD2015, GD2017, SYB2018, HB201812, HB201806, and TJ2019) were classified together with CEO vaccine strains, while only one isolates LN2018 belonged to the wild-type cluster.

Changes in critical sites of virus-encoded protein or cis-acting element generally determine pathogenicity differentiation among different isolates of the same plant virus. Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) isolates, which exhibit the most extensively known host range, demonstrate notable pathogenicity differentiation. This study focuses on the severe isolate CMV and mild isolate CMV, both affecting several species within the Solanaceae family, to identify the key factors regulating pathogenicity differentiation.
