Abstract excerpt
A representative selection of Prototheca zopfii strains isolated from different environmental habitats or clinical cases was characterized in a polyphasic approach in order to assess their intraspecies taxonomic position. Recently, the recognition of distinct phenotypic clusters has been reported as the assignment of 'variants'. In the present study, 11 strains were compared by a number of phenotypic and genetic...
