Figure A2. . SimPlot analyses for identifying recombination sites in the hexon gene (A), penton base gene (B), and fiber gene, including the outside of the coding sequence, (C) of human adenoviruses (HAdVs). The x-axes indicate nucleotide positions in these genes, and the y-axes indicate similarities between HAdV-65 and other HAdV-D reference strains. Parameters used were a 200-bp window, a 20-bp step, and a Kimura 2-parameter. HVL1; hypervariable loop 1; RGD, Arg-Gly-Asp.
