| aspergillus alabamensis, a new clinically relevant species in the section terrei. | phylogenetic analyses of sequences generated from portions of three genes coding for the proteins enolase (enoa), beta-tubulin (bena), and calmodulin (calm) of a large number of isolates within the section terrei, genus aspergillus, revealed the presence of a new cryptic species within this section, aspergillus alabamensis. most members of this new cryptic species were recovered as colonizing isolates from immunocompetent patient populations, had decreased in vitro susceptibilities to the antifu ... | 2009 | 19304950 |
| New species in Aspergillus section Terrei. | Section Terrei of Aspergillus was studied using a polyphasic approach including sequence analysis of parts of the ß-tubulin and calmodulin genes and the ITS region, macro- and micromorphological analyses and examination of extrolite profiles to describe three new species in this section. Based on phylogenetic analysis of calmodulin and ß-tubulin sequences seven lineages were observed among isolates that have previously been treated as A. terreus and its subspecies by Raper & Fennell (1965) and o ... | 2011 | 21892242 |
| disseminated aspergillosis in a dog due to aspergillus alabamensis. | disseminated aspergillosis is uncommon in dogs and often associated with aspergillus terreus. a case of disseminated disease in an english springer spaniel is reported from which aspergillus alabamensis was recovered by culture and identified by molecular means suggesting a potential role for this agent as a primary pathogen of dogs. | 2012 | 24371723 |
