Species Identification and Strain Differentiation of Dermatophyte Fungi by Analysis of Ribosomal-DNA Intergenic Spacer Regions
1 Apr 1999
Abstract excerpt
Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) identified in the ribosomal-DNA (rDNA) repeat were used for molecular strain differentiation of the dermatophyte fungus Trichophyton rubrum. The polymorphisms were detected by hybridization of EcoRI-digested T. rubrum genomic DNAs with a probe amplified from the small-subunit (18S) rDNA and adjacent internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions. The rDNA RFLPs mapped...
