Delineation of species within the Trichoderma viride/atroviride/koningii complex by UP-PCR cross-blot hybridization.

abstract：:Abstract The emergence of the nontuberculosis mycobacteria (NTM) as clinically relevant pathogens has warranted the study of these ubiquitous organisms in the context of their likely environmental niche, the biofilm. We assayed the NTM bacterium Mycobacterium marinum strain 1218R, a fish outbreak isolate, for biofilm ...
