Comparison of methods for isolating fungal DNA [PDF]

open access: yesCzech Journal of Food Sciences, 2011
In this study methods of fungal DNA isolation were optimised and compared. The aim of the isolation processes was to obtain DNA of sufficient quality and quantity necessary for its amplification, as most detection techniques require DNA amplification ...

Influence of DNA extraction kits on freshwater fungal DNA metabarcoding. [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2022
Abstract Background Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is a common technique for efficient biodiversity monitoring, especially of microbes. Recently, the usefulness of aquatic eDNA in monitoring the diversity of both terrestrial and aquatic fungi has been suggested.

Unraveling the ancient fungal DNA from the Iceman gut. [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics
Abstract Here, we explore the possible ancient fungal species in the gut of Ötzi, the Iceman, a naturally mummified human found in the Tyrolean Alps (border between Italy and Austria). While ancient DNA (aDNA) has been extensively used to study human, animal, and plant evolution, this research focuses on ancient ...

The Quest for a General and Reliable Fungal DNA Barcode [PDF]

open access: yesThe Open Applied Informatics Journal, 2011
DNA sequences are key elements for both identification and classification of living organisms. Mainly for historical reasons, a limited number of genes are currently used for this purpose. From a mathematical point of view, any DNA segment, at any location, even outside of coding regions and even if they do not align, could be used as long as PCR ...

Rapid Mini-Preparation of Fungal DNA for PCR [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2000
Nucleic acid detection methods such as PCR have become a common tool for microbial identification and diagnosis. Although PCR amplification can be performed directly for various microbial cultures, for filamentous fungi and yeasts, prior isolation of DNA is often preferred.

Detailed Protocol to Perform Direct PCR Using Filamentous Fungal Biomass—Tips and Considerations

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2023
The precise and rapid detection of fungi is important in various fields, including clinics, industry, and agriculture. While sequencing universal DNA barcodes remains the standard method for species identification and phylogenetic analysis, a significant

A simple method for extraction of fungal genomic DNA [PDF]

open access: yesLetters in Applied Microbiology, 2000
We have developed a new, simple and effective method for extraction of fungal genomic DNA. The initial steps involved suspension of freeze-dried mycelium in buffer containing sodium dodecyl sulphate, detachment of DNA from polysaccharides by mild shearing, NaCl precipitation of polysaccharides and protein, chloroform extraction and ethanol ...

Candida glabrata: A Lot More Than Meets the Eye

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
Candida glabrata is an opportunistic human fungal pathogen that causes superficial mucosal and life-threatening bloodstream infections in individuals with a compromised immune system. Evolutionarily, it is closer to the non-pathogenic yeast Saccharomyces

Use of magnetic beads to extract fungal DNA [PDF]

open access: yesMycoses, 2005
SummaryAuthors compare two methods of extracting DNA from different fungi: the classic method with phenol/chloroform (P/C) and that with magnetic beads. Both were tested on Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans var. neoformans, belonging to the yeast group and Microsporum canis, M. gypseum, Trichophyton rubrum, T. interdigitale, T.
