Sequence analysis of a compound coding-region microsatellite in Candida albicans resolves homoplasies and provides a high-resolution tool for genotyping.

Abstract excerpt

Sequence diversity at a coding-region microsatellite locus of two diploid Candida species was surveyed. Twenty-one alleles from fourteen strains of Candida albicans and three alleles from two strains of the closely related Candida dubliniensis were sequenced. Results show independent length variation in two contiguous hexanucleotide repeats, one non-contiguous hexanucleotide repeat, and two non-contiguous...
