Molecular and genetic characterization of a serotype A MATaCryptococcus neoformans isolate

1 Jan 2003

Abstract excerpt

Cryptococcus neoformans comprises two varieties (neoformans and gattii) and four serotypes (A, B, C and D). Fertile isolates of both mating types have been identified in serotypes B, C and D; however, a fertile serotype A MATa strain has not been confirmed, although serotype A MATalpha strains will mate with serotype D MATa strains. Preliminary analysis of a recent Italian environmental isolate (IUM 96-2828)...
