In this study, we determined the complete genome sequences of HTLV-1 strains isolated from Taiwan and Japan and investigated the geographic characteristics of molecular subgroups and substitution mutations to understand the spread of HTLV-1 and its correlation with human migration.en[SDGs]SDG3Geographic characteristics of HTLV-1 molecular subgroups and genetic substitutions in East Asia: Insights from complete genome sequencing of HTLV-1 strains isolated in Taiwan and Japanjournal article10.1371/journal.pntd.0011928383157292-s2.0-85185220567https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85185220567
