About this document
Intragenomic Variation in Fungal ITS Region by Ahmad Ilham Tanzil is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates intragenomic variation in the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of fungi, revealing that about 27% of the 2414 fungal genomes analyzed contain multiple ITS copies, with 65% of those showing variation among copies. Such intragenomic variation can lead to erroneous species descriptions and skew environmental DNA studies, particularly in estimating fungal diversity. The findings highlight the need for careful consideration of ITS variation in taxonomic and ecological research inv
