The Ins and Outs of DNA Fingerprinting the Infectious Fungi

2000-04-01

Abstract excerpt

SUMMARY DNA fingerprinting methods have evolved as major tools in fungal epidemiology. However, no single method has emerged as the method of choice, and some methods perform better than others at different levels of resolution. In this review, requirements for an effective DNA fingerprinting method are proposed and procedures are described for testing the efficacy of a method. In light of the proposed requirement...
