Part Description

LP269180-8   Fungal 18s rRNA gene
The fungal 18S rRNA gene is approximately 1900 base pairs. It contains eight variable regions (V1-5 and V7-9) as well as one highly conserved region (V6). The highly conserved region can be used in molecular assays to detect the presence of fungal pathogens, and the variable regions can be used to identify specific species as well as for phylogenetic analysis.
