Fig. 5. Maximum-parsimony phylogenetic analysis for hexon.
Gene sequences of hexons from a HAdV-A, -B, and -C and b HAdV-D are presented. Trees were constructed, following sequence alignment with ClustalW, using the maximum-parsimony option of the Molecular Evolutionary Genetic Analysis v6 software package (MEGA6; www.megasoftware.net/) and implementing a bootstrap test of 1000 replicates and default parameters. Sequences derived from this large-scale sequencing study are identified by their GenBank accession codes. Putative novel genotypes are denoted by blue dots. No novel hexon sequence was found
