Abstract excerpt
Candida glabrata is an important human pathogen, and an understanding of the genetic relatedness of its clinical isolates is essential for the prevention and control of fungal infections. In this study, we determined the relatedness of 38 Candida glabrata clinical isolates originating from two teaching hospitals in Slovakia. The 14 different genotypes were found by using microsatellite marker analysis (RPM2, MTI...
