Abstract excerpt
Newcastle disease virus (NDV) infects a wide range of hosts, including poultry and wild birds. However, most research has focused on poultry-derived strains, with limited studies on the biological characteristics of NDV isolated from wild birds. This study investigated genotype IX NDV strains from wild birds. Genetic evolution and viral ecology analyses suggest possible poultry-to-wild-bird transmission of this...
