(A) In vitro growth characteristics of ASFV-G-Δ8DR and parental ASFV-G. Primary swine macrophage cell cultures were infected (MOI = 0.01) with each of the viruses and virus yield titrated at the indicated times post-infection. Data represent means from three independent experiments. Sensitivity of virus detection: ≥1.8 log10 TCID50/ml. (B) Lack of hemadsorbing activity in ASFV-G-Δ8DR infected cells. Primary swine macrophage cell cultures were infected (MOI = 10) with ASFV-G-Δ8DR or parental ASFV-G infected in the presence of swine red cells.
