ABSTRACT
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) continues to be a threat, causing economically significant impacts on the swine industry worldwide. Unfortunately, the traditional control strategies and conventional vaccines fail to provide sustainable disease control, in particular against genetically diverse strains, as they suffer from both antigenic heterogeneity and various immune evasion strategies of PRRSV. In this paper, latest research progress in immunology and immune evasion of PRRSVis summarized to provide a referenc for PRSSV prevention and control as well as the design of new vaccines.
