Isolation of aCryptococcus neoformansserotype AMATastrain from the Italian environment

1 Jan 2001

Abstract excerpt

Cryptococcus neoformans is a heterothallic basidiomycete which possesses a bipolar mating system based on two mating type alleles, MATa and MATalpha. In the type variety, C. neoformans var. neoformans, both mating types have been found among strains of one serotype, serotype D, whereas only MATalpha was identified after extensive survey of serotype A strains. Serotype A MA Ta appeared to be extinct or to exist...
