This study reports the emergence of a highly pathogenic FCoV-CCoV recombinant causing a rapidly spreading FIP outbreak in Cyprus, with evidence of direct transmission and potential receptor binding changes.

This study identifies molecular mechanisms of FCoV-23 pathogenicity, including receptor usage and biotype switching, and identifies a cross-reactive antibody for therapeutic development.

The paper presents a method for efficient, low-cost sequencing of ASFV genomes using tiled PCR and a new pipeline called Lilo, resulting in near-complete genomes with high accuracy.
