Abstract 5
Low virulence Newcastle disease viruses (loNDV) are frequently recovered from wild 6
bird species, but little is known about their distribution, genetic diversity, or potential to cause 7
disease in poultry. NDV isolates recovered from cloacal samples of apparently healthy waterfowl 8
and shorebirds (WS) in the U.S. during 1986 to 2005 were examined for genomic diversity and 9
their potential for virulence (n = 249). In addition 19 loNDV isolates from U.S. live bird markets 10
(LBMs) were analyzed and found to be genetically distinct from NDV used in live vaccines, but 11
related to WS-origin NDV. Phylogenetic analysis of the fusion protein identified nine novel 12
genotypes among the class I NDV and new genomic subgroups were identified among genotypes 13
I and II of the class II viruses. The WS-origin viruses exhibited broad genetic and antigenic 14
diversity and some WS genotypes displayed a closer phylogenetic relationship to LBM-origin 15
NDV. All NDV were predicted to be lentogenic based upon sequencing of the fusion cleavage 16
site, intracerebral pathogenicity index, or mean death time in embryo assays. The USDA real-17
time RT-PCR (RRT-PCR) assay that targets the matrix gene identified nearly all of the class II 18
NDV viruses tested, but failed to detect class I viruses from both LBM and WS. The close 19
phylogenetic proximity of some WS and LBM loNDV suggests that viral transmission may 20
occur among wild birds and poultry; however, these events may occur unnoticed due to the broad 21
genetic diversity of loNDV, the lentogenic presentation in birds, and the limitations of current 22
rapid diagnostic tools. 23

Introduction 1
Viruses of the avian paramyxovirus serotype-1 (APMV-1), synonymous with Newcastle 2
disease virus (NDV) belong to the genus Avulavirus in the family Paramyxoviridae (34) and 3
encompass a diverse group of single stranded, negative sense, non-segmented RNA viruses of 4
approximately 15.2 Kb that have a broad host range in bird species. The virulent forms of the 5
virus, which exhibit an intracerebral pathogenicity index ≥0.7, are the cause of Newcastle disease 6
(ND), a notifiable avian disease that must be reported to the World Organization for Animal 7
Health (OIE). Classically these viruses have been grouped by virulence phenotype, with 8
lentogenic, mesogenic, and velogenic strains reflecting increasing levels of virulence. Those 9
viruses categorized either as mesogens or velogens are currently defined as virulent Newcastle 10
disease viruses (vNDV) and lentogens are viruses of low virulence (loNDV). Newcastle disease 11
viruses can cause clinical signs ranging from subclinical infections to 100% morbidity and/or 12
mortality depending on the virulence of the virus and the susceptibility of the host. Lentogenic 13
viruses typically cause subclinical infections or mild respiratory disease. Mesogens are of 14
intermediate virulence, usually resulting in moderate respiratory disease with occasional nervous 15
signs. Velogens, the most virulent viruses, are those that may cause extensive hemorrhagic 16
lesions, particularly in the gastrointestinal tract (viscerotropic) and/or a predominance of nervous 17
signs (neurotropic) (4). Virulent NDV are considered exotic to United States (U.S.) poultry; 18
however, the lentogenic strains are common among domestic poultry (27,32,36,45) and wild bird 19
populations (25,27,43,50). The occurrence of vNDV infections in birds is a notifiable event and 20
when these infections occur in poultry trade restrictions are imposed. Virulent NDV infections 21
present a significant threat to the U.S. poultry industry as evidenced by the 2002-03 California 22

outbreak (41) which resulted in the destruction of 3.3 million birds and cost nearly $200 million 1
dollars to eradicate (53). 2
Newcastle disease viruses have historically been grouped into either genotypes (9) or 3
genetic lineages (2) under one serotype (APMV-1). Recent analysis of the genome size and 4
sequence analysis of the F and L genes has revealed 2 distinct clades within the APMV serotype-5
1 viruses: class I and II (14). While there are few published genomic sequences of class I 6
isolates, which have been primarily recovered from waterfowl of the order Anatidae and samples 7
from U.S. live bird markets (LBMs), the class II viruses comprise the vast majority of sequenced 8
NDV and include isolates recovered from poultry (gallinaceous birds), pet and wild bird viruses 9
(2,45). The class II NDV are further categorized into genotypes I to IX with the genomic 10
sequences of commonly used vaccine strains resembling virulent NDV isolated during the 1940s 11
(class II, genotype II). 12
The natural ecology of NDV is not fully understood and research has mainly focused on 13
tracing either the origin of specific viruses or the spread of virulent viruses during ND outbreaks 14
in poultry (5-7,12,15,21,41,44). Of the few studies characterizing NDV infections in wild bird 15
populations, some suggest that waterfowl provide a natural reservoir for NDV and 16
epidemiological links have been hypothesized between outbreak isolates recovered from poultry 17
and those isolates found in wild bird populations (18,25-27,42,50). For example, phylogenetic 18
analyses have identified virulent NDV isolates recovered from pigeons and migrating cormorants 19
as the likely source of some NDV outbreaks in poultry (1,10,22,31,37,51). 20
Although recent data have implicated U.S. LBMs as the source of respiratory pathogens 21
such as avian influenza virus (AIV) and NDV that cause disease in domestic poultry 22
(11,32,40,45,46); there is a paucity of data on the relationship between NDV circulating in wild 23

waterfowl and shorebirds and NDV causing infections in poultry from LBMs. Earlier reports on 1
the genomic analysis of NDV recovered in U.S. LBMs showed that these loNDV isolates were 2
related to class II NDV strains which have been used for live vaccines in commercial poultry 3
(32), but more recently three U.S. LBM isolates recovered during 2001 and 2002 are 4
representative of class I viruses (45). Additionally, the recently reported LBM-origin isolates 5
from Hong Kong were also found to be class I viruses (28). 6
Understanding the epidemiology of loNDV infections in waterfowl and LBM poultry has 7
been hampered by the fact that these viruses typically produce no clinical signs and that class I 8
isolates are often not detected by rapid screening methods such as reverse transcription PCR 9
(RT-PCR). Sensitive rapid diagnostic assays exist to detect class II NDV such as the USDA-10
validated real time RT-PCR which targets the matrix gene (M-gene assay); however, due to the 11
heterogeneous genetic nature of this virus, class I viruses tested often fail to be detected by the 12
M-gene assay (28). Previous evaluation of the nucleotide sequence alignment of the M-gene 13
assay probe site of class I and II viruses revealed a high degree of mismatches between the two 14
clades, and this is likely the reason that the class I viruses escape detection by real time RT-PCR 15
(28,29). 16
Here, Newcastle disease viruses from U.S. LBMs (n = 19) that demonstrated NDV-17
specific hemagglutination-inhibition (HI) activity with polyclonal antiserum, but which tested 18
negative for NDV using the M-gene assay, were partially sequenced and found to be genetically 19
distinct and phylogenetically distant from vaccine and virulent viruses reported worldwide. In 20
addition, 249 NDV isolates recovered from cloacal samples collected during 1986 to 2005 from 21
apparently healthy waterfowl and shorebirds (WS) in the U.S. were analyzed and select isolates 22
were tested using the M-gene assay and a panel of monoclonal antibodies. We established the 23

phylogenetic relationship between the LBM- and WS-origin NDV isolates, determined the 1
geographic distribution and broad genetic diversity among the WS-origin viruses, and evaluated 2
the potential for virulence of U.S. WS-origin viruses. 3

Materials and Methods 5
Hemagglutination (HA) and hemagglutination-inhibition (HI) assays. The HA and 6
HI assays were completed by microtiter methods. The HA assay of allantoic fluids harvested 7
from inoculated embryonating eggs was used to identify NDV-positive embryos. Confirmation 8
of NDV-positive fluids and antigenic characterization of virus isolates was conducted by HI 9
using microtiter methods as previously described (30). Four HA units of viral test antigen were 10
used in completing the HI assay with monoclonal antibodies and polyclonal antiserum. 11
Isolates and sequence data. Newcastle disease viruses were obtained from the Southeast 12
Poultry Research Laboratory (SEPRL) repository or collected during a multi-institutional 13
cooperative WS virus monitoring project between University of Georgia Southeastern 14
Cooperative Wildlife Disease Study, the University of Alaska Museum, and The Ohio State 15
University Department of Veterinary Preventive Medicine and USDA-SEPRL (47). Viruses 16
from wild-captured WS were isolated from cloacal swab material by standard virus isolation 17
methods in embryonating chicken eggs (3,49). Two-hundred-forty-nine U.S. WS isolates (Table 18
1) were obtained from monitoring samples for shorebirds of the family Scolopacidae in DE (n = 19
17) and NJ (n = 8); and from duck and geese sampling in MD (n = 121), MN (n = 43), OH (n = 20
15), LA (n = 16), TX (n = 26), and AK (n = 3; includes one previously published isolate; 21
Northern Pintail/US(AK)/196/1998, Genbank accession EF027165). The 19 U.S. LBM 22
environmental and poultry isolates were obtained from surveillance samples submitted to the 23

USDA APHIS National Veterinary Services Laboratory from MA (n = 1), NJ (n = 10), NY (n = 1
7), and RI (n = 1). In addition, previously described samples from the Agriculture, Fisheries and 2
Conservation Department of Hong Kong SAR (n = 21) (28) and Shelduck/France/MC-110/1977 3
(GenBank accession AF003726) were included totaling 290 isolates (Supplemental Table S1). 4
For comparisons, all isolates were grouped into four major categories based on the source: Anas 5
platyrhynchos (mallard and Anas rubripes or black duck; n = 169), Other Anatidae (other ducks 6
and geese; n = 56), Scolopacidae (shorebirds; n = 25), and Live bird market (LBM; 7
environmental and domestic poultry isolates; n = 40). 8
RNA was extracted from allantoic fluids using Trizol LS (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) 9
according to manufacturer instructions. Briefly, 750µl of Trizol LS reagent was added to 250µl 10
of allantoic fluid, vortexed, and incubated at room temperature for 7 minutes. The RNA was 11
separated into the aqueous phase with the addition of 200µl of chloroform, precipitated with 12
isopropanol, and then centrifuged to pellet the RNA. After one wash with 70% ethanol, RNA 13
was dried and resuspended in RNAse-free water. PCR amplification of the RNA was performed 14
using the Qiagen One Step reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA). 15
Amplified products were separated on a 1% agarose gel, the bands excised and eluted using the 16
QIAquick Gel extraction kit (Qiagen), and the samples quantified using a standard 17
spectrophotometer. 18
All sequencing reactions were performed with fluorescent dideoxynucleotide terminators 19
in an automated sequencer (ABI 3700 automated sequencer; Applied Biosystems Inc., Foster 20
City, CA). Nucleotide sequence editing and analyses were conducted with the LaserGene 21
sequence analysis software package (LaserGene, version 5.07; DNAStar, Inc., Madison, WI). 22

(accession # AF077761), the homologous regions sequenced were as follows: a 374 bp partial F 1
gene (positions 4554 to 4917; n = 206), a 254 bp partial fragment spanning the M and F genes 2
(positions 4826 to 5066; n = 40), and the complete coding region for the F gene (positions 4544 3
to 6205; n = 21). 4
Phylogenetic analysis. Maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetic analysis with bootstrap 5
values for n = 100 replicates was performed using Phyml under the general time reversible 6
(GTR) model of nucleotide substitutions, ML estimates of base frequencies, estimated 7
transition/transversion ratio and proportions of invariable sites with 4 categories of substitution 8
rates (19). For DNAML trees (16) default conditions were used, and distance based analysis 9
conducted with the Neighbor Joining method was done using the Tajima-Nei nucleotide 10
substitution model in the BioEdit Sequence Alignment Editor (Hall, T.A. Abstr. Nucl. Acids. 11
Symp. Ser. 41:95-98, 1999). The 374 bp region of the F gene, which has commonly been used 12
for phylogenetic analysis of NDV (2), was sequenced to compare the U.S. LBM isolates (n = 19) 13
to 209 WS viruses. For reference, previously published GenBank sequences from known NDV 14
clades (class I n = 13; class II n = 47), in addition to 21 class I LBM isolates from Hong Kong 15
(28) were included. The 254 bp region was used to compare the 40 remaining WS isolates (for a 16
total of 249) to 106 LBM and WS viruses previously analyzed in the 374 bp analysis (data not 17
shown). For the purpose of discussion and to maintain consistency with previous naming 18
conventions, the term “genotype” was used here to describe isolates that reproducibly group 19
together on a distinct branch of a phylogenetic tree. The class I genotypes were indicated using 20
Arabic numerals for ease of differentiating them from class II genotypes. 21

in one-day-old chicks (3) and a modified procedure was used to determine mean death time 1
(MDT) in embryonating eggs. The MDT was performed by inoculating the allantoic cavity of 9-2
11 day old embryonating specific pathogen free eggs with serial 10-fold dilutions of a virus 3
isolate. The eggs were incubated at 37°C and candled twice daily (early morning and late 4
afternoon) for seven days, and the time of embryo mortality was recorded. The MDT of a 5
minimum lethal dose was interpreted as the mean time in hours for the embryo death in the 6
highest dilution at which all eggs died (3). 7
Real time reverse-transcription PCR. Select LBM and WS NDV isolates (n = 50) were 8
tested using the USDA-validated M-gene assay (53). 9
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and antiserum. Nine mAbs with different NDV 10
specificities were used for differentiating isolates by the HI assay as previously described 11
(30,33). The mAbs obtained from USDA, APHIS, National Veterinary Services Laboratories 12
(Ames, Iowa) included B79, 15C4, 10D11 (35), AVS (48), and 617/161 (13). Additional mAbs 13
prepared at SEPRL included P15D7, P11C9, P3A11, and P10B8. The reactivity of the mAbs was 14
as follows: the AVS mAb inhibits many lentogens including B1 and LaSota strains; 10D11 15
inhibits neurotropic velogens and mesogens like the Roakin strain; 15C4 inhibits most APMV-1 16
except pigeon paramyxovirus-1 (PPMV-1); B79 inhibits most APMV-1 including most PPMV-17
1; P15D7, P11C9, P3A11, and P10B8 identify additional antigenic diversity among APMV-1; 18
and the 617/161 mAb inhibits only PPMV-1 within the APMV-1 group. A positive result was 19
defined as antibody-inhibited HA, and a negative result was defined as no HA inhibition. The 20
polyclonal chicken NDV antiserum was prepared at SEPRL by immunization of chickens with 21
inactivated NDV-LaSota. 22

Results 6
Newcastle disease virus isolates from U.S. LBMs were genetically distinct and 7
phylogenetically distant from vaccine and virulent strains of NDV. A 374 bp region of the 8
fusion protein from 19 U.S. LBM samples during 2005-2006 was sequenced and 9
phylogenetically compared to the corresponding regions of representative viruses from the NDV 10
class I and II clades (n = 81; Figure 1). Based upon analysis of this region all of the U.S. LBM 11
viruses corresponded to the class I clade and were therefore phylogenetically distant from class II 12
viruses such as the vaccine viruses in genotypes I and II and the frequently observed virulent 13
viruses (genotypes II to IX). The largest cluster of U.S. LBM-origin viruses (Figure 1; bolded 14
and designated with the symbol ‘>’) in this study was most closely related to previously reported 15
U.S. LBM-origin viruses from 2001 (G01US DCK1, -DCK2, -CHK; accessions AY626266-68) 16
(45). Recently identified NDV recovered from Hong Kong LBM samples (Figure 1; boxed with 17
asterisk) formed a separate cluster which lacked close association with other viruses. One of the 18
U.S. LBM-origin NDV isolates (05NJ329ENV) grouped together with a duck virus isolated in 19
Taiwan during 1995 (G95T DCK; accession AY135757) (2), and European isolates from 20
Germany (G01DEU DLN, G99DEU DCK; accessions DQ096595, DQ097393) (14) and 21
Denmark (G97DK CHK, -OST; accessions AY175733, AY75744) (2) formed a nearby cluster. 22
Another cluster near to the largest LBM cluster included WS viruses from the U.S. (G80US 23

Germany (G89DEU DCK; accession AY175732) (2). A virulent virus from Ireland that caused 2
an outbreak in poultry during 1990 (§ vG90IE CHK; accession AY972102) (5) was also found in 3
the class I clade (Figure 1). 4
5
Live bird market-origin isolates were found to be closely related to WS-origin 6
isolates. To investigate the source of the U.S. LBM loNDV they were compared to 249 WS 7
isolates obtained from healthy birds during 1986 to 2005 in eight different states (Table 1 and 8
Supplemental Table S1a). Phylogenetic analysis of the 374 bp region demonstrated that U.S. 9
LBM-origin viruses were related to class I WS-origin isolates and that of the nine class I 10
genotypes identified, four were represented by U.S. LBM viruses (Figure 2a). The largest cluster 11
of U.S. LBM viruses, which were isolated from environmental samples, eggs, chickens and 12
ducks in several northeastern U.S. states during 2005-06, corresponded to genotype 5 (15/19) 13
which also included a large proportion of the U.S. WS isolates (60/173). The WS isolates in 14
closest association with the U.S. LBM viruses were all from mallards (Anas platyrhynchos), the 15
most notable of which was a 1999 isolate from Minnesota (Figure 2a; arrow, black typeface, 16
bolded, 99MNCA8MLD, genotype 5) that is closely related to LBM viruses isolated in the 17
northeastern U.S. during 2005-06. Statistical analysis of the branches of this tree using ML 18
confirmed the significant probability (> 0.01) for the node connecting the 99MNCA8MLD 19
isolate to the cluster of genotype 5 LBM isolates. Interestingly, genotype 6 was found only 20
among the U.S. LBM isolates including previously described isolates from 2001 (G01US DCK1, 21
-CHK; blue typeface, bolded, accessions AY626266 and -68) (45). A single U.S. LBM isolate 22
from New York in 1995 (95NY263CHK; brown typeface, bolded) was classified as genotype 1 23

which comprised many of the oldest class I WS isolates identified herein (circa 1987) and it was 1
most similar to 88LACA4BWT (Figure 2a; black typeface, bolded). The only known virulent 2
class I virus appears on a separate branch (§ vG90IECHK; red typeface, bolded, accession 3
AY972102) (5) apparently basal or sister to genotypes 1-7 (Figure 2a; genotype 1), indicating 4
that it represents a separate genotype. The final U.S. LBM isolate (05NJ329ENV; brown 5
typeface, bolded) was categorized in genotype 4 and was most closely related to a 1995 Taiwan 6
duck isolate (G95TW DCK; blue typeface, bolded, accession AY135757) (2) and a U.S. WS 7
isolate from Alaska (98AK5GWT; black typeface, bolded). The LBM viruses from Hong Kong 8
were clearly separated from the other class I viruses and formed genotype 3 (Figure 2a; denoted 9
by asterisk). 10
11
Broad phylogenetic diversity was found among the U.S. WS isolates (n = 249) 12
representing class I and II viruses from nine different genotypes. Seven of the nine novel 13
class I genotypes were represented by U.S. WS isolates (Table 1 and Figure 2a). For the class I 14
WS viruses (Figure 2a; designated by ‘+’), those from Anatidae species (especially those from 15
mallards) were found to be related to the LBM viruses,(Figure 2a; designated by ‘>’ in brown 16
typeface) while the isolates from shorebirds (Figure 2a; designated by ‘++’ in green typeface) 17
tended to form distinct clusters within genotypes 7 and 8 that were distinct from either the 18
Anatidae or LBM viruses. Some temporal and geographic clustering was observed; however, this 19
could be due to the isolation of multiple related samples from the same location, and multiple 20
genotypes were often present in the same year and location (Table 2). 21
The class II WS viruses formed distinct clusters related to the previously described 22
genotypes I and II (Figure 2b); for the purpose of discussion these subgroups will be referred to 23

as Ia and IIa. A cluster of mallard isolates from Maryland during 2004 was closely related to 1
viruses in genotype I which are primarily lentogenic viruses such as the 1967 Ulster strain 2
(G67IE Ulster; accession AY562991). However, no viruses closely related to the widely used 3
LaSota and B1 live vaccines were isolated from any of the WS-origin samples. A separate cluster 4
of predominantly shorebird viruses formed a subgroup (genotype Ia; designated by ‘++’) with 5
the viruses endemic to Australia (vG98AU CHK, G98AU CHK, G66AUQV4; accessions 6
AY175722, AY175658, AF217084), New Zealand (G98NZ DCK1, accession AY175730), Asia 7
(G76JP DCK, G02CH Heb; accession M24705, AF217084), and the U.S. (G03CA TKY, G83US 8
LOO; accessions AY175642, AY175736). Of particular note was the presence of an isolate from 9
a domestic 12-week-old turkey from a farm in Ontario, Canada (G03CA TKY) within a closely 10
related cluster of shorebird isolates from the U.S. Anatidae viruses related to genotype II. This 11
cluster, which includes a diverse group of lentogens and mesogens in addition to many vaccine 12
strains, formed another subgroup (IIa) with previously published WS viruses from Argentina 13
(G98AG DCK, G00AG SWN; accessions AY727881, -82) (14) and a chicken isolate from Spain 14
(G88ES CHK, accession AY175642) (2). 15
Overall, the majority of WS-origin viruses were isolated from mallards, which 16
represented nearly 70% of the WS viruses sequenced (169/249; Table 1) and the most frequently 17
observed genotype among these viruses was class I genotype 5 (65/249). The Anatidae species 18
alone were host to genotypes 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 9 of class I, and I, Ia, and IIa of class II (Table 1), 19
with genotypes 5 and 7 being identified most often. The shorebird (Scolopacidae) isolates were 20
predominantly of genotype 7, with genotype 5 being conspicuously absent among these viruses. 21
Class II genotype IIa represented the third most common genotype (59/249; Table 1) with 22
mallards representing the most common host. 23

Diverse WS genotypes were distributed across eight states over the 20 year period. 2
Multiple genotypes circulated across the U.S. over time and within a region during a given year 3
(Table 2); for example, three different class I genotypes occurred in Alaska during 1998 (from 4
Anatidae sp.) and four class I genotypes occurred in Minnesota during 2000 (all from mallards). 5
In Maryland during 2004 this held true for both class I and II viruses as well. Multiple genotypes 6
were also found circulating within a specific source group (species) in the Maryland region 7
(Table 3). Mallards during 2001-2004 (n = 101) were infected by five of the nine class I 8
genotypes (1, 2, 4, 5, and 7). The data in Table 3 also demonstrated a change in the 9
predominating genotype from year to year. Whereas genotype 5 was most commonly observed in 10
this subset during 2001 (16/16), it was not identified again until 2004 (38/54). Interestingly, 11
genotype 5 was most prevalent in mallards in 2004 and in the U.S. LBM isolates during 2005-06 12
(15/17). 13
14
The broad phylogenetic diversity found in the 374 bp F gene analysis was confirmed 15
by analysis of the complete coding region of the F gene. Representative WS viruses (Figure 3; 16
Anatidae designated by ‘+’ and shorebirds designated by ‘++’) and LBM viruses (Figure 3; 17
designated by ‘>’) were analyzed using Phyml ML with bootstrap values for n = 100 replicates 18
(Figure 3; bootstrap values ≥ 70 shown for each major node), and was reproducible using both 19
DNAML and Neighbor Joining techniques (data not shown). These results confirmed the 20
phylogenetic diversity observed using the shorter F gene genomic regions, clearly distinguished 21
the LBM viruses from vaccine and virulent viruses, and validated the close phylogenetic 22
relationship between WS and LBM viruses. 23

Waterfowl and shorebird isolates from the U.S. possessed a highly attenuated 2
phenotype. Classical pathotyping using MDT, ICPI, and molecular classification based on the 3
deduced amino acid sequence of the fusion cleavage site were used to determine the pathogenic 4
potential of representative WS isolates (Table 4a and b). Eighty WS isolates representing various 5
genotypes among class I and II were pathotyped using the ICPI in day-old chicks (Table 4a). All 6
isolates tested (80/80) had low ICPI values of <0.2 (on a 0-2.0 scale). The MDT assay in eggs 7
was >90 hours (data not shown) for 58 of these 80 isolates, which is characteristic of lentogenic 8
viruses and indicates that the viruses tested have a low potential to cause significant disease in 9
poultry (3). 10
The deduced amino acid sequences confirmed the presence of lentogenic fusion cleavage 11
sites for all WS- and LBM-origin isolates characterized by the limited number of basic amino 12
acids at positions 112-116 and the presence of leucine at position 117 (Table 4b; n = 290). The 13
predominant motif among class I isolates, 110-GGERQERL-117, was found in 85.5% of isolates 14
(183/214) and is common among other reported lentogenic strains (45). This motif was also 15
found among U.S. (3/19) and Hong Kong (10/21) LBM isolates; however, the majority of the 16
U.S. LBM isolates had the single amino acid substitution aspartate for glutamate at position 115 17
(15/19). The remaining LBM isolates from Hong Kong shared two motifs that were unique to 18
that group (11/21). The predominant motif among class II isolates 110-GGEKQGRL-117 had the 19
amino acid substitution lysine for arginine at position 113 and glycine for glutamate at position 20
115. 21

Broad phylogenetic diversity may impact the efficacy of rapid detection methods for 1
class I WS and LBM viruses. To determine whether the WS isolates would be detected using 2
the USDA validated M-gene assay developed for class II NDV, a panel of 29 WS and 21 LBM 3
viruses (n = 19 U.S. and n = 2 Hong Kong) were tested (class I n = 42; II n = 8; Figure 4). Over 4
two thirds (30/42) of class I viruses were suspect or failed to be detected (cycle threshold [CT] 5
value ≥ 35 or zero) and the remainder (10/42) were weakly positive with high CT values (30-34). 6
Although the majority of class II viruses were accurately identified with the M-gene assay (6/8), 7
the remaining two viruses from ruddy turnstones in genotype Ia demonstrated suspect CT values 8
(02NJ60RDT, 02DE54RDT; CT values 34-38). All samples contained quantifiable RNA and 9
produced a product of expected size when amplified using F gene primers in a standard RT-PCR 10
assay, and selected class I viruses were positive (CT values < 30) with a previously developed L-11
gene targeted real time RT-PCR assay (28) (data not shown). 12
The 58 U.S. isolates from Anatidae species during 1986-1999 that were used for MDT 13
determination were also evaluated using a monoclonal antibody (mAb) binding assay with a 14
novel panel (Table 5). Isolates were classified into seven distinct groups based on the mAb 15
binding patterns as follows: group 1 (n = 33) was characterized by binding of mAbs AVS, 15C4, 16
B79, P15D7,P11C9, P3A11; group 1A (n = 3) included binding of mAb P10B8; group 2 17
exhibited binding of 15C4, B79, P15D7,P11C9, P3A11 (n = 1); whereas group 2A did not bind 18
mAb P11C9 (n = 1); the third group (n = 17) bound only to mAb B79; group 4 did not bind to 19
any of the mAbs (n = 2); and group 5 demonstrated binding to mAbs AVS, 15C4, B79, P15D7, 20
and P11C9 (n = 1). Monoclonal antibody groups 2, 3, and 4 correlated with class I viruses, with 21
group 3 representing genotypes 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 9 which are found in the Anatidae group. 22
Groups 1, 1A, 2A, and 5 corresponded to the class II viruses, with group I primarily composed of 23

genotypes II and IIa. Although differentiation between class I and II viruses was possible using 1
the mAb assay, only a few of the mAbs recognized class I viruses and the assay was not capable 2
of distinguishing differences between class I genotypes. 3

Discussion 5
The discovery of a large number of class I NDV viruses recovered from LBMs in the 6
northeastern U.S. and the existence of genetically related viruses found in WS suggest that 7
epidemiological connections may exist between them. Identification of an earlier LBM isolate 8
(Figure 2a; 95NY263CHK) in class I, genotype 1 which is related to the oldest WS-origin 9
viruses analyzed here, and a class I genotype 5 mallard isolate (99MNCA8MLD) that was 10
closely related to the largest cluster of 2005-06 LBM isolates suggest that transmission between 11
WS and birds in the LBM has occurred. While the mallard isolate (99MNCA8MLD) was 12
geographically removed from where the cluster of LBM viruses was isolated (northeastern U.S.), 13
the data for the geographic distribution combined with the natural mobility of wild birds 14
indicates that NDV strains are likely highly mobile. Another explanation for the similarity 15
between the WS- and LBM-origin viruses could be the existence of parallel reservoirs that are 16
either evolutionarily static or evolving in similar directions and at comparable rates; however this 17
would be an evolutionarily implausible scenario based on the rapid capacity for RNA viruses to 18
change, the history of evolution for other NDV (2,51,54), and the year to year changes in the 19
phylogenetic trees presented here. In this study, there were few cases where the class I LBM 20
viral genotypes lacked WS counterparts (e.g. Figure 2a; class I genotype 6 from the U.S. and 21
genotype 3 from Hong Kong) and the data are simply insufficient to determine a viral ancestor. 22
In each of these cases, increased sampling of at risk domestic and wild birds may potentially 23

reveal reservoirs of low virulence ND viruses, but the absence of such data does not discard the 1
possibility of viral transmission among these populations. 2
The identification of a class II genotype Ia virus from a 12-week old domestic turkey in 3
Ontario during 2003 (G03CA TKY, Figure 2b) that clustered closely with U.S. shorebird isolates 4
from New Jersey in 2001 (01NJRKN, RDT, SDL) suggests that class II loNDV may also 5
occasionally transmit between wild and domestic populations. It is noteworthy to mention that 6
while billions of doses of live NDV vaccine are used worldwide in poultry, the absence of class 7
II vaccine or vaccine-like viruses in wild birds suggests that transmission from vaccinated 8
domestic poultry into wild birds may not be a frequent occurrence. 9
The data herein support a complex viral ecology for loNDV infections in wild birds 10
because it presents evidence of circulation of more than one genotype within a species and 11
within a geographic location as well as circulation of more than one genotype during the same 12
year. The re-occurrence of genotypes over time presents the possibility of cyclic predominance 13
of various lineages. Cyclic patterns of subtypes have been reported for avian influenza virus 14
where isolation of an HA subtype may be followed one to two years later by reduced isolation 15
rates for the same subtype (39). 16
These data also provide substantial insight into the broad phylogenetic diversity of NDV 17
and emphasize the potential for more genotypes yet to be discovered; however, the study herein 18
is likely not sufficient to establish the precise genotypes that may be encountered. For example, 19
viruses from class I genotypes 1, 2 and 6 were delineated based upon distance and clustering, but 20
they may in fact represent additional genotypes. The ability to discern separate genotypes will 21
improve over time as more viruses are identified and sequenced. The diversity observed at the 22
phylogenetic level would be expected to follow at the antigenic and protein levels as well, as 23

suggested by the mAb results and the differences in the deduced F proteins (up to 17.4% amino 1
acid differences, data not shown). Here we have only explored avian WS species from the orders 2
Anseriformes and Charadriiformes, and while NDV has been documented to infect at least 241 3
different bird species (4) other non-domestic avian families in these orders and other non-4
domestic avian orders remain virtually unexplored for loNDV. 5
Although class I and II loNDV viruses in this study were predicted to exhibit lentogenic 6
phenotypes, concern exists regarding possible genetic changes to loNDV upon replication in 7
poultry. Virulent viruses of similar genotypes to those found in WS and LBM have previously 8
been recovered (5,18). The 1990 Ireland outbreak was caused by a virulent class I virus (vG90IE 9
CHK; accession AY972102), which in this study corresponds to genotype 1 or the progenitor-10
type viruses (Figure 2a); and the Australian outbreak of 1998-200 was caused by the mutation to 11
virulence of a class II genotype I virus, which are typically lentogenic. Genomic analysis of the 12
class II genotype I viruses (genotype Ia in the present study which included several species of 13
U.S. waterfowl) from the Australian outbreak provided evidence that lentogenic viruses have the 14
potential to become virulent over time (18), and that a change in the cleavage site of the fusion 15
protein of the native virus resulted in increased virulence (17). 16
The performance of two diagnostic tools commonly used for rapid identification of NDV 17
viruses is also of concern. Approximately 70% of WS-origin isolates identified corresponded to 18
class I viruses (174/249) that are poorly or not detected by the USDA M-gene assay (28,29). The 19
use of mAb assays for rapid characterization may also not be optimal for class I viruses as these 20
assays have predominantly been developed and optimized to recognize class II viruses. Because 21
mAbs are directed against single epitopes, their ability to detect a broad spectrum of viruses is 22
often limited. Preliminary testing using an L-gene targeted real time RT-PCR assay detected 23

class I LBM viruses from Hong Kong (28) and other select WS and LBM isolates (data not 1
shown); however, due to the phylogenetic diversity of loNDV, multiple real time RT-PCR tests 2
may be needed to detect all WS genotypes. 3
Active surveillance of LBMs focused on the detection of vNDV is laudable, but many 4
challenges still remain. Live bird markets promote the commingling of multiple bird species in 5
close quarters and provide opportunities for transmission of disease agents (38,40,41,46). In the 6
U.S., LBMs are part of a complex system that provides fresh poultry, typically in larger cities. 7
Because these markets receive birds from multiple sources, confine multiple bird species in close 8
quarters, and provide processing services onsite, they provide an environment in which reservoir 9
species such as waterfowl are closely housed with gallinaceous hosts. While the USDA has been 10
working to control low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) in U.S. LBMs since 1986, the 11
Uniform Standards were released in 2004 and the official program was instituted during 2006 12
which includes registration of LBM premises, documentation of test-negative status of birds 13
entering the market, and the testing of premises and examination of records (52). Over 15,000 14
samples were submitted to NVSL specifically for AIV and NDV surveillance in 2003 (Suarez, 15
D.L., Abstr. 108th U.S. Animal Health Association Annual Meeting, p.93, 2004). In 2002, more 16
than 15,000 specimens were tested at the NVSL for AIV and NDV surveillance; however, few of 17
the surveillance samples originated from backyard poultry. Since the 2002-03 outbreak of vNDV 18
in California, Nevada, and Arizona, which was epidemiologically linked to infections in 19
backyard poultry and game fowl, surveillance among this population has been significantly 20
intensified. For WS populations, NDV monitoring has been sporadic and often occurs in 21
conjunction with other monitoring programs such as AIV (8,20,23,24). Detection of vNDV in 22
wild bird populations often occurs after outbreaks in poultry (18,25-27,50). To date, hardly any 23

data exist regarding loNDV circulating in WS populations, and their highly attenuated phenotype 1
makes them difficult to track among poultry because they may circulate undetected due to lack 2
of clinical signs. 3
In summary, we have demonstrated the broad genetic diversity and lentogenic 4
presentation of loNDV from WS, and have identified a close phylogenetic proximity with LBM-5
origin loNDV suggesting that viral transmission may occur among wild birds and poultry. 6
Evidence that NDV monitoring in the U.S. using the USDA M-gene assay may not be adequate 7
to detect all NDV from class I and II emphasizes the need for new diagnostic assays to identify 8
circulating reservoirs of loNDV in wild bird populations and LBM poultry. Further 9
epidemiologic studies will be needed to clarify the prevalence and origin of loNDV in wild bird 10
populations and LBM poultry, in addition to the ongoing genetic characterization of new 11
isolates. 12

the distance between class I and II viruses with the large cluster of U.S. LBM isolates circled and 9
the Hong Kong LBM circled with an asterisk. Class II genotypes are denoted in brackets. Scale 10
indicates the branch length based on the number of nucleotide substitutions per site. 11
