Deoxyribonucleic acid fingerprinting methods for Candida species.
A number of genetic fingerprinting methods have evolved to analyze the population structure and to perform epidemiological and etiological studies of infectious fungi. These methods include multilocus enzyme electrophoresis, restriction fragment-length polymorphism using complex probes, random amplification of polymorphic DNA, and multilocus sequence typing, which are described in this chapter.
