The differences of viral replication post HAdV-3, HAdV-7 infection. a. Viral loads of HAdV-3 and HAdV-7 were evaluated in three cell lines at 48 h post-infection; n = 4, *P < 0.05, HAdV-7 compared with HAd-V3 in A549; ## P < 0.01, HAdV-7 compared with HAdV-3 in 16HBE; ^ P < 0.05, HAdV-7 compared with HAdV-3 in 293 cells. b Growth kinetics of HAdV-7 or HAdV-3 at 0, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 and 96 h post-infection in A549 cells; n = 3, *, P < 0.05, compared with HAdV-3. c Competitive replication between HAdV-3 and HAdV-7 in A549 cells (3 replicates each experiment, mean ± SEM); *, **, *** P < 0.05, 0.01, 0.001, comparing with HAdV-3
