Abstract excerpt
Codominant single-locus markers were developed by amplifying genomic DNA of C. albicans with pairs of random primers. Monomorphic PCR products were screened for polymorphisms by the SSCP technique. Sequencing confirmed that SSCP's were mostly due to single nucleotide substitutions in the polymorphic fragments. A total of 85 polymorphic loci were observed within 13 PCR fragments. Populations from Africa displayed...
