Abstract excerpt
Random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) using an arbitrary oligonucleotide primer (5'-CGGTGCGACG) and analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphism of ribosomal DNA (rDNA-RFLP) after digestion of genomic DNA with restriction endonuclease EcoRI were investigated as tools for genotypic delineation beyond the species level of 91 Candida clinical isolates and four reference strains including 33 Candida...
