The invention provides 
a site-directed modification method for 
DNA viral 
genome, and the problems in the prior art are solved that induction of site-
directed mutagenesis of 
DNA viral 
genome is difficult, the operation of inserting an exogenous fragment is complex, and 
recombination rate is lower. The site-directed modification method comprises: transfecting cells by a 
plasmid carrying a 
nuclease system, infecting by a 
virus, after the cells show 
pathological changes, collecting the cells with 
pathological changes, performing freeze-thaw or ultrasonic 
processing, and centrifuging, separating the liquid supernatant to obtain a progeny 
virus. The site-directed modification method is capable of realizing applications to screening of 
virus attenuated vaccine strains, construction of viral genetic carriers and an 
oncolytic virus, research on virus function sequences, and the like; during modification of the viral 
genome, the method helps to improve 
mutagenesis efficiency, accurately control 
DNA virus for genome site-
directed mutagenesis and specific 
gene knockout, simplify operation steps of inserting the 
DNA virus carrier by an exogenous 
gene, and improve efficiency that the exogenous 
gene is integrated to the viral genome, so that the work of screening high-flux recombination viruses is convenient to conduct.
