Abstract excerpt
Trichophyton rubrum is the most significant agent of dermatomycoses worldwide, primarily causing tinea pedis and tinea unguium. PCR analysis of tandemly repetitive subelements (TRS) within the rDNA nontranscribed spacer region is a major tool for molecular typing of T. rubrum. The aim of this study was to investigate the stability of TRS PCR patterns by analyzing isogenic strains of T. rubrum. Twenty-seven groups...
