Abstract excerpt
A heterologous DNA-mediated transformation system was developed for the pneumocandin-producing fungus Z. arboricola that was based on either conferral of hygromycin B resistance or complementation of a nitrate reductase mutant. Hygromycin-resistant transformants were selected with plasmid pCSN43 which contains the E. coli hygromycin B phosphotransferase gene under the control of Aspergillus nidulans trpC...
