Phylogeny of HAdV-55 based on whole-genome sequences for study of virus distribution, regional persistence, and genetic variability. The phylogenetic tree was generated using the maximum-likelihood method with subtree pruning and regrafting and nearest-neighbor interchange tree search and the Shimodiara-Hasegawa approximate likelihood ratio test for node confidence values. Node confidence values were estimated using approximate likelihood ratio test and the tree was rooted on a HAdV-14 clade as

The phylogenetic tree was generated using the maximum-likelihood method with subtree pruning and regrafting and nearest-neighbor interchange tree search and the Shimodiara-Hasegawa approximate likelihood ratio test for node confidence values. Node confidence values were estimated using approximate likelihood ratio test and the tree was rooted on a HAdV-14 clade as an outgroup (not shown). GenBank accession numbers for isolates are provided. Scale bar indicates node confidence value. HAdV, human adenovirus.
