Molecular markers reveal cryptic sex in the human pathogen Coccidioides immitis.

23 Jan 1996

Abstract excerpt

Coccidioides immitis, cause of a recent epidemic of "Valley fever" in California, is typical of many eukaryotic microbes in that mating and meiosis have yet to be reported, but it is not clear whether sex is truly absent or just cryptic. To find out, we have undertaken a population genetic study using PCR amplification, screening for single-strand conformation polymorphisms, and direct DNA sequencing to find...
