Two new cryptic sister species, Candida orthopsilosis and Candida metapsilosis, were recently identified by consistent DNA sequence differences among several genes within the genetically heterogeneous Candida parapsilosis complex. Here, we present data demonstrating that Pyrosequencing analysis of 20 nucleotides of internal transcribed spacer region 2 rapidly and robustly distinguishes between these three closely related Candida species.
最近,通过基因异质性近平滑念珠菌复合体中几个基因之间一致的DNA序列差异,鉴定出了两个新的隐匿姐妹种,即正平滑念珠菌和变平滑念珠菌。在此,我们展示的数据表明,对转录间隔区2的20个核苷酸进行焦磷酸测序分析能够快速且可靠地区分这三种密切相关的念珠菌。
