Despite advances owing to molecular approaches, several hurdles still obstruct the
identification of fungi forming orchid mycorrhizas. The Tulasnellaceae exhibit accelerated …

Variable regions of the 16s ribosomal RNA have been frequently used as the target for DNA
probes to identify microorganisms. In some situations, however, there is very little sequence …

Brassicaceae seed meal (SM) formulations were compared with preplant 1, 3-
dichloropropene/chloropicrin (Telone-C17) soil fumigation for the ability to control apple …

Advances in molecular biology are now providing the means for solving long-standing
problems in microbiology. One of the best examples is the development of a rational …

Background: Recent reports exploring the role of gradients of quorum sensing (QS) signals
in functional activated sludge have raised the question of whether shared systems of …

Identification of microbial assemblages predominant under natural extreme climatic events
will aid in our understanding of the resilience and resistance of microbial communities to …

The internal transcribed spacer regions (ITS1 and ITS2) of ribosomal DNA from Alternaria
species, including seven fungi known to produce host-specific toxins, were analyzed by …

We have assembled a sequence database for 80 genera of Basidiomycota from the
Hymenomycete lineage (sensu Swann & Taylor 1993) for a small region of the mitochondrial …

This study used polymerase chain reaction amplification and direct sequencing of double-
stranded DNA to compare the intergenic region between the 3′ end of the 26S gene and …

summary Little information currently exists on species diversity in communities of arbuscular
mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), mainly owing to difficulties in identification of field extracted spores …
