Chromosome-sized DNA of Malassezia pachydermatis by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
The genome of Malassezia pachydermatis isolates from dogs was resolved into six chromosomes by using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and their molecular sizes were calculated as 820, 1,100, 1,400, 1,470, 1,660 and 1,820 Kb, respectively. Comparison of electrophoretic patterns suggested that the chromosomes of M. pachydermatis were homozygous.
