Abstract excerpt
Black yeasts morphologically identified as Exophiala cf. spinifera were re-analyzed on the basis of morphology, nutritional physiology and ITS rDNA sequencing data. Ribosomal small subunit (SSU) DNA sequence data confirmed that strains belonged to a clade containing the ex-type strain of E. spinifera. Variation in the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) region of the rDNA was studied within this group. Five...
