Molecular Phylogenetics of Multiple Genes on Aspergillus Section Fumigati Isolated from Clinical Specimens in Japan
1 Jan 2007
Abstract excerpt
A phylogenetic study based on sequence analysis of the beta-tubulin, hydrophobin and calmodulin genes was performed in 19 strains of Aspergillus fumigatus and related species isolated from clinical specimens in Japan. Correlations between detailed morphology and phylogeny were examined. Species in the section Fumigati were divided into five clades: clade I, typical strains of A. fumigatus; clade II, species...
