Attenuated african swine fever virus and use thereof in vaccine compositions

The present invention relates to African Swine Fever (ASF) attenuated viruses wherein the genes EP402R and EP153R have been inactivated, which can be used as a vaccine. The attenuated viruses protect pigs against subsequent challenge with virulent virus. The present invention also relates to the use of such attenuated viruses to treat and/or prevent ASF
