Abstract excerpt
DNA polymorphism among isolates of the insect pathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae and M. flavoviride was investigated by RAPD-PCR. DNA fragments of between 0.3 and 2.7 kb were obtained using eight 10-mer PCR primers of arbitrary nucleotide sequence, and each isolate differed in the size and number of RAPD products, indicating considerable polymorphism. Isolate-specific RAPD fingerprints were used to...
