Sequence and phylogenetic analysis of Newcastle disease virus genotype VII isolated in Malaysia during 1999-2012

Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is a contagious viral disease of many avian species particularly domestic poultry, and is responsible for causing significant economic losses to the poultry industry in Southeast Asia including Malaysia. Here we report the sequence and phylogenetic analysis of NDV that...
