Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
China has the largest pig industry and is the biggest consumer of pork products around the world. In recent decades, endemic and emerging swine viral diseases, such as African swine fever virus (ASFV), classical swine fever (CSFV), pseudorabies virus (PRV), porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV), porcine circovirus 4 (PCV4), swine acute diarrhea syndrome coronavirus (SADS-CoV), and foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), have resulted in huge economic losses in China. To date, Chinese scientists have achieved great progress in preventing and controlling swine viral diseases. This Special Issue on “Recent Advances of Swine Viral Disease Research in China: Epidemiology, Virus–Host Interactions and Control: Second Edition” aims to share knowledge and experience in the aforementioned research fields in China.
In this Special Issue, we will cover the following topics of interest to improve our understanding of the biological characteristics of these viruses: epidemiology, viral genetic diversity and evolution, new serological/molecular diagnostics, virus structure, virus–cell interactions, vaccines and antivirals, and control and prevention measures. We welcome original research articles and reviews including—but not limited to—all the abovementioned areas.
The only limitation is that the main part of the study has to have been carried out in China or by Chinese researchers.
