Adenovirus prototypes used in the comparison were as follows: species A, human adenovirus type 12 (AB330093), type 18 (DQ149610), and type 31 (AB330112); species B1, human adenovirus type 3 (EF494650) and type 7 (AC000018); species B2, adenovirus type 35 (AC000019); species C, adenovirus type 1 (AC000017) and type 2 (EU867481); species D, adenovirus type 8 (AB361058), type 19 (AB330133), and type 51 (AB330132); species E, adenovirus type 4 (AB330085); and species F, adenovirus type 40 (AB330121) and type 41 (EF429128).

b

*, isolates were 100% homologous to each other and were most closely related to prototype HAdV 12; **, isolates were 100% homologous to each other and to prototype HAdV 41; ***, isolates were 100 % homologous to each other and were most closely related to prototype HAdV 41.
