Sequences analysis of rDNA ITS of rabbit dermatophytes in Hebei province.

The article discusses a study related to the nucleotide sequence analysis of the ribosomal DNA and its flanking internal transcribed spacers (ITS) obtained from the strains of rabbit dermatophytes from Hebei province in China. Topics discussed include cloning of the genes from the rabbit strains, identification of isolated dermatophyte strains such as Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Penicillium chrysogenum, and Beauveria bassiana, and use of ITS as taxonomic evidence for rabbit dermatophytes.
