Abstract
The present invention provides a recombinant swinepox virus vector containing a heterologous nucleotide sequence encoding a protein from a selected pathogen inserted into, or replacing, all or a portion of a swinepox virus gene, which gene is not essential to replication of the virus in a host cell. Also provided is a recombinant SPV vector into which a pseudorabies antigen is inserted within the TK gene, which is useful in diagnostic, therapeutic, and prophylactic compositions.
