Summary
Restriction endonuclease analysis was used to compare the genome of mouse adenovirus (MAd) strains FL and K87. Large differences were found between theKpn I,PaeR7,Pvu I,Sal I andSma I restriction profiles of the prototype strains. MAd-FI and MAd-K87 thus represent two distinct species of mouse adenovirus.
