Molecular Diagnosis of Emmonsia-Like Fungi Occurring in Wild Animals

Molecular Diagnosis of Emmonsia-Like Fungi Occurring in Wild Animals

Using specific primers based on the ribosomal operon, positive DNA amplification was obtained from lungs of 11/215 tested small burrowing animals, both terrestrial and aquatic, and including frozen ( n  = 4) and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded ( n  = 7) samples. The main species detected in Europe...

Zusammenfassung:Using specific primers based on the ribosomal operon, positive DNA amplification was obtained from lungs of 11/215 tested small burrowing animals, both terrestrial and aquatic, and including frozen ( n  = 4) and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded ( n  = 7) samples. The main species detected in Europe in mice, otters and river rats was Emmonsia crescens . Two strains from otters and weasels were Blastomyces parvus . Two Australian wombats revealed the presence of a hitherto unknown species of the geophilic genus Emmonsiellopsis .
