Abstract excerpt
Intraspecies polymorphisms of Microsporum canis strains isolated from human lesions and domesticated cats in Japan were examined by multilocus microsatellite (MS) analysis. Using 9 MS markers, 70 strains were classified into 20 genotypes (genotypes A to T). Of the 9 MS markers used, 5 were considered useful for genotyping, whereas the other 4 were not.
