A Study on the Species Diversity, Mating Types, and Clinical Relevance of Trichophyton mentagrophytes/interdigitale Complex Infections in Guizhou Province.

Abstract excerpt

To date, no reliable biological clock markers have been identified to elucidate the phylogenetic relationships among the three species within the Trichophyton mentagrophytes complex-namely T. interdigitale, T. mentagrophytes, and T. indotineae.
