| Research Abstract |
We isolated pathogenic fungi and relative species from a life environment in Central Asia, and studied their diversity and the difference from Japanese strains on morphology and phylogeny. As the results, it was clear that the isolation frequency of atypical Aspergillus fumigatus species was high compared with those of Japan. It is necessary to discriminate those species because their susceptibility against antifungal drugs different. Therefore we developed the methods of quick identification on those species using molecular methods. We also reported unknown strains as new species.
