Comparative Genomic Analysis of Warthog and Sus Scrofa Identifies Adaptive Genes Associated with African Swine Fever

Background: As warthogs (<i>Phacochoerus africanus</i>) have innate immunity against African swine fever (ASF), it is critical to understand the evolutionary novelty of warthogs to explain their specific ASF resistance. Methods: Here, we present two completed new genomes of one warthog a...
