A multilocus phylogeny of Hericium fungi in Canada and their production of Erinacine A
… phylogenies of the genus Hericium based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region struggle to support monophyly at the species level, hindering biochemical research efforts. Using concatenated sequence data from ITS, the large ribosomal subunit (LSU), translation elongation factor 1-alpha …

Isolating and Identifying Fungal Endophytes from Roots of Rare Orchid Cypripedium arietinum in Grand Sable Dunes, Michigan
… conserved 5.8s rDNA and the highly variable internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions on either side of it. DNA was sequenced and sequences were identified using NCBI BLAST. Of the 36 DNA samples 27 were positively identified. <em>Phialocephala fortinii</em> and <em>Leptodontidium …

Isolation and molecular characterization of Non-Tuberculous Mycobacteria of Public Health significance from Humans and water in Namwala Districts of Zambia
… were then characterized using the 16S-23S internal transcribed spacer region Sequencing. One hundred and fifty three (153) individuals with suspected TB were sampled and 7(4.6%) were found to have NTM with M. arupense (3, 2%) being the most common organism. Out of the 149 water samples …

Mentha (Lamiaceae) Phylogenetic Analysis Using Chloroplast TRNL-TRNF and Nuclear Ribosomal DNA ITS Sequences
… the chloroplast trnL-trnF and nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions. Based on trnL-trnF data, Mentha appears monophyletic. However, ITS data place the Mentha species into two distinct clades that include 12 other Mentheae genera. None of the sections with more than one …

Resolving a Cryptic Species Complex: Application and Utility of Mitochondrial 16S and Nuclear Its1 Molecular Markers in Pyrgulopsis Micrococcus
… DNA region (16S) and the complete first nuclear internal transcribed spacer region (ITS1) were performed for multiple individuals from each of thirteen populations of P. micrococcus, ten other Pyrgulopsis species, and an outgroup species from the genus Nymphophilus. Neighbor-joining and maximum …
