From: Whole-genome sequencing of genotype VI Newcastle disease viruses from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues from wild pigeons reveals continuous evolution and previously unrecognized genetic diversity in the U.S.

Phylogenetic tree constructed using the complete genome concatenated coding sequences of genotype VI Newcastle disease viruses. The evolutionary history was inferred using the Maximum-likelihood method based on the General Time Reversible model with 1000 bootstrap replicates. The analysis involved 41 complete genome concatenated coding sequences of genotype VI, and there were a total of 13,744 positions in the final dataset. The NDV sequences obtained from this study are highlighted in either green (VIn) or red (VIa) colored font, and the distinction between all VIa and VIn viruses is designated by brackets and Roman numerals for the sub-genotype VI designation. The taxa names are labeled by the sub-genotype using Roman numerals, the GenBank identification number, the host organism, the collection country with state designation if from the U.S., the strain designation, and the year of collection. Evolutionary analyses were conducted in MEGA6 [21]
