Overview

May aid HAdV-55 outbreak recognition; leaves open role of recombination in emergence and need for genomic surveillance.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Human Adenovirus Type 55 from an outbreak in China
I
Intervention
Computational genome analysis
O
Outcome
Genome recombination identification

Computational analysis reveals that human adenovirus type 55 is a recombinant of HAdV-B11 and HAdV-B14, explaining its sporadic re-emergence and misidentification.
