Abstract
The full-genome sequences of strains chicken/Indonesia/Cilebut/010WJ/2015 and chicken/Indonesia/ITA/012WJ/1951, isolated in West Java, Indonesia, in 2015 and 1951, respectively, were examined. Chicken/Indonesia/Cilebut/010WJ/2015 (genotype VII) caused a 2015 disease outbreak in Indonesia, and chicken/Indonesia/ITA/012WJ/1951 (genotype VI) is used as a standard strain for challenge in Newcastle disease virus (NDV) vaccine trials.
Highlights
In Indonesia, Newcastle disease (ND) outbreaks have caused high mortality in commercial chickens, even when vaccinated with attenuated Newcastle disease virus (NDV) [1]
Genotype VII NDV predominates in Southeast Asia [3, 4], but local vaccines mostly contain genotype II strain LaSota [5]
Strain ITA was collected in West Java, Indonesia, in 1951 and today is used in challenge trials to test the efficacy of vaccines [5]
