| relationship between phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of trichophyton mentagrophytes strains isolated from patients with dermatophytosis. | according to epidemiological, clinical and mycological criteria, it has long been admitted that the trichophyton mentagrophytes species includes two varieties: a zoophilic variety (var. mentagrophytes) and an anthropophilic variety (var. interdigitale) that involve the upper and the lower part of the body, respectively. the further application of molecular techniques to the characterization of dermatophyte strains showed that this classification is unreliable. the aim of our study was to assess ... | 2017 | 28101694 |
