Abstract excerpt
The complete genome sequences of three strains of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) isolated from vaccinated commercial layer flocks in Japan in the span of three decades were characterized. All strains had genome lengths of 15,192 nucleotides consisting of six genes in the order of 3'-NP-P/V/W-M-F-HN-L-5'. The general genomic characteristics of the Japanese field strains were consistent with previously characterized...
