Phylogenetic analysis of HAdV complete sequences from patient isolates in study of acute encephalopathy associated with human adenovirus type 14 infection in 7-year-old girl, Japan, and reference sequences. The most recent reference strain was from the United States in 2019. The tree was created by IQ-TREE (9) using the maximum composite-likelihood methods with 1,000 bootstrap replicates. GenBank accession numbers are provided for reference sequences. Scale bar indicates number of substitutions per site.
