Phylogenetic tree based on partial F gene sequences (aligned 218 nucleotides from all strains). The tree was constructed using the maximum likelihood method with the general time-reversible model and 1000 bootstrap replicates. Bootstrap values ≥ 80% are shown at the nodes. Red: Ethiopian NDV isolates in this study; Green: Previous Ethiopian NDV strains; Black: Top hit NDV strains from other countries closely related to Ethiopian strains selected from the 1000 sequences retrieved by BLAST search and reference sequences for genotyping reported by Dimitrov et al. [9] for genotype VII.1.2, VII.2 and VI.
