 | Pounder, June I.; Simmon, Keith E.; Barton, Claudia A.; Hohmann, Sheri L. | Identification of nonsporulating molds by sequencing internal transcribed spacer regions with Virodec software and database | Fungal infections are increasing, particularly among immunocompromised hosts, and a rapid, accurate diagnosis is essential for the initiation of targeted antifungal therapy. Identification of fungi from culture requires the presence of reproductive structures, and the absence of spores can increase ... | nonsporulating molds; genetic sequencing; Virodec; ITS I; ITS II | 2006-01-09 |
