Es. Naumova et al., Molecular genetic analysis of the yeast Komagataea (Williopsis) pratensis strains isolated from the Caucasian and Tien Shan soils, MICROBIOLOG, 70(2), 2001, pp. 200-205
The analysis of sixteen Komagataea (Williopsis) pratensis isolates from Cau
casian and Tien Shan soils by the PCR, blot hybridization, and isoenzyme el
ectrophoresis techniques showed that fifteen of them do belong to the speci
es K. pratensis. The isolates from the two geographic areas differed in som
e physiological characteristics and in the PCR product profiles obtained wi
th the microsatellite primers (CAC)(5) and (GACA)(4).
