Abstract

Classical swine fever (CSF) is a contagious disease of swine with serious economic losses in pig industry [1]. The disease is caused by CSFV which belongs to the viruses of bovine viral diarrhea (BVDV) and border disease virus (BDV) make up the Pestivirus genus within the family Flaviviridae [2]. Attenuated Korean LOM strains were used in Korea. For these reasons a practical approach for discrimination between vaccine and field strains is needed. Here, we described the deveopment of real-time RT-PCR to discriminate between vaccine strains and Korean field viruses of CSFV. (omitted)
