The diversity of Malassezia yeasts confirmed by rRNA sequence and nuclear DNA comparisons.

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek - 1 Jan 1995

Guillot J, Guého E

Abstract excerpt

One hundred and four Malassezia strains (52 isolated from humans and 52 from animals) were compared using large subunit (LSU) ribosomal RNA sequence similarity and nuclear DNA complementarity. Eight groups of strains were recognized as genetically distinct species. Each taxon was confirmed by a homogeneous mole % GC and percentages of DNA/DNA reassociations higher than 85%. The non-lipid-dependent Malassezia...
