Figure Lengend Snippet: Results of the recombination analysis of the XH2109 strain. Strains were subjected to similarity plot using SimPlot version 3.5.1. A. Recombination analysis results of the XH2109 strain against FAdV-8a ( KT862810 ), FAdV-8b ( KT862811 ), CH/GDLZ/201801 ( MK387061 ), and CH/HBXT/1907 ( OM868085.1 ). The blue, yellow, red and green peak plots represent FAdV-8a, FAdV-8b, CH/HBXT/1907 and CH/GDLZ/201801, respectively. B Recombination analysis results of the XH2109 strain against six recent Chinese FAdV-8a and FAdV-8b strains. The yellow, blue, gray, pink, red, and green peak plots represent HD2402 ( WXX18678.1 ), HeB20 ( UWT60572.1 ), QD2016 ( AWT08526.1 ), SD1356 ( AYC35465.1 ), SD2009 ( UXL82796.1 ), and JL170408 ( MN417117.1 ), respectively.
