Nucleotide sequence analysis of the Second Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS2) in Hyalomma anatolicum anatolicum in Iran
Ticks are important acarina that infest animals. They are obligatory blood sucker arthropods which economically impact cattle industry by reducing weight gain and production. Moreover, they are important vectors of viral, bacterial, rickettsial and parasitic pathogens infecting humans and animals. In view of the importance of Hyalomma anatolicum anatolicum in pathogen transmission, including Th...
متن کاملInternal transcribed spacer sequencing versus biochemical profiling for identification of medically important yeasts.
In this study, we established an in-house database of yeast internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences. This database includes medically important as well as colonizing yeasts that frequently occur in the diagnostic laboratory. In a prospective study, we compared molecular identification with phenotypic identification by using the ID32C system (bioMérieux) for yeast strains that could not be i...
متن کاملMolecular Identification of Two Strains of Phellinus sp. by Internal Transcribed Spacer Sequence Analysis
Two species of cultivated Phellinus sp. were identified as P. baumii by internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence analysis. The fruit bodies of the examined strains were similar to those of naturally occurring strains, having a bracket-like form, yellow-to-orange color, and poroid hymenial surfaces. The DNA sequences of ITS region of both strains showed a homology of 99% with ITS1 to ITS2 sequ...
متن کاملComparative sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacer 1 of Ochrobactrum species.
The internal 16S/23S rDNA (rrs/rrl) internal spacer region 1 (ITS1) of 54 Ochrobactrum strains and close relatives was analysed. Separation of ITS1 containing PCR products by gel-electrophoresis, DGGE, cloning and sequencing revealed ITS1 length and sequence heterogeneity. We found up to 5 different allelic ITS1 stretches within a single strain (Ochrobactrum intermedium LMG 3301T), and 2-3 diff...
متن کاملSequencer-Based Capillary Gel Electrophoresis (SCGE) Targeting the rDNA Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) Regions for Accurate Identification of Clinically Important Yeast Species
Accurate species identification of Candida, Cryptococcus, Trichosporon and other yeast pathogens is important for clinical management. In the present study, we developed and evaluated a yeast species identification scheme by determining the rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region length types (LTs) using a sequencer-based capillary gel electrophoresis (SCGE) approach. A total of 156 yeast...
