Differentiation between Debaryomyces hansenii/Candida famata complex and Candida guilliermondii by polymerase chain reaction.
Primers for the differentiation of the Debaryomyces hansenii/Candida famata complex were designed from large subunit ribosomal DNA base sequences. With these primers, a polymerase chain reaction test amplified DNAs from all the species of the Debaryomyces hansenii/Candida famata complex and distinguished this complex from Candida guilliermondii.
