Abstract

On 16 November 2018, a wild boar infected with African swine fever was reported in China. The phylogenetic analysis showed that its causative strain belonged to the p72 genotype II, CD2v serogroup 8 and contained no additional tandem repeat sequences between the I73R and the I329L protein genes, which was different from previously reported strains in China.
