Differences in mitochondrial genome organization of Cryptococcus neoformans strains.

The organization of the mitochondrial genomes in two strains belonging in different varieties of Cryptococcus neoformans was analysed. Physical maps of the mtDNA of the IFM5844 (var. neoformans) and IFO410 (var.

Organization of mitochondrial DNA in the basidiomycetous Dioszegia hungarica (Cryptococcus hungaricus) species.

The organization of mitochondrial DNA was investigated in the six collection strains of the basidiomycetous yeast Dioszegia hungarica (Cryptococcus hungaricus) isolated so far. Physical and partial functional maps were constructed. Two strains (CBS 6324 and 6576) were identical while three others (CBS 4214, 5124, 6953) differed not only in the distribution of restriction sites but in gene order as well.
