Phylogenetic analysis of West African strains using a partial nucleotide sequence of the fusion-protein gene. (A) Phylogenetic relatedness of the West African strains with representative NDV strains from class I (Cl-I) and class II (Cl-II) genotypes (Geno-) identified by their GenBank accession numbers. The African strains formed three clusters (clusters 1 to 3). (B) Phylogenetic analysis of the 27 West African strains, illustrating the three clusters (clusters 1 to 3). (C) Phylogenetic analysis of the 27 Benin and Togo strains isolated in the present study in relation to previously characterized NDVs from Africa (as described in references 17 and 18). Our 27 viruses are shown in bold font and highlighted with a solid circle. The class II genotype V and VII reference strains shown in panel A are underlined.
