Techniques for the detection of pathogenic Cryptococcus species in wood decay substrata and the evaluation of viability in stored samples
In this study, we evaluated several techniques for the detection of the yeast form of Cryptococcus in decaying wood and measured the viability of these fungi in environmental samples stored in the laboratory. Samples were collected from a tree known to be positive for Cryptococcus and were each inoc...
