Abstract Trichophyton interdigitale, an anthropophilic species, is one of the main causative agents of tinea unguium and tinea pedis. T. interdigitale and the zoophilic species T. mentagrophytes are morphologically and physiologically very similar. Isolates of the T. interdigitale/T.

Congruence of chloroplast- and nuclear-encoded DNA sequence variations used to assess species boundaries in the soil microalga Heterococcus (Stramenopiles, Xanthophyceae). [PDF]
BackgroundHeterococcus is a microalgal genus of Xanthophyceae (Stramenopiles) that is common and widespread in soils, especially from cold regions. Species are characterized by extensively branched filaments produced when grown on agarized culture medium.

Sequence Variant for Internal Transcribed Spacer Region of Mycobacterium abscessus [PDF]
During the implementation of a PCR-based assay to differentiate between Mycobacterium abscessus and M. chelonae using the 16S to 23S internal transcribed spacer region ([1][1]), a sequence variant of M. abscessus was discovered. The sequence variant did not bind the M. abscessus specific probe,

Analysis of Mammalian rDNA Internal Transcribed Spacers
Nuclear rDNA Internal Transcribed Spacers, ITS1 and ITS2, are widely used for eukaryote phylogenetic studies from the ordinal level to the species level, and there is even a database for ITS2 sequences. However, ITS regions have been ignored in mammalian phylogenetic studies, and only a few rodent and ape sequences are represented in GenBank.
