Also, mtDNA\u2010RFLP had been used to investigate the molecular epidemiology of sporotrichosis. While the current standard for molecular diagnosis is performed by sequence analysis of the calmodulin gene (<jats:italic>CAL<\/jats:italic>), correspondence between the results from <jats:italic>CAL<\/jats:italic> and mtDNA is of diagnostic and epidemiological interest. Here, we investigated the correspondence between <jats:italic>CAL<\/jats:italic> and mtDNA used for molecular identification of <jats:italic>Sporothrix globosa<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>.\u00a0<jats:italic>schenckii<\/jats:italic>, which are two major species. We also investigated and propose molecular markers suitable to describe the epidemiology of <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>.\u00a0<jats:italic>globosa<\/jats:italic>, which is considered as a species with few intraspecific polymorphisms. Eighty\u2010seven strains morphologically identified as <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>.\u00a0<jats:italic>schenckii sensu lato<\/jats:italic> were investigated. They were identified as group A (17 types, 17 strains) or B (14 types, 70 strains) by mtDNA\u2010RFLP. Partial sequences of <jats:italic>CAL<\/jats:italic>, internal transcribed spacer, and spacer between atp9 and cox2 genes of mtDNA of these strains were determined. All group A strains corresponded to <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>.\u00a0<jats:italic>schenckii<\/jats:italic>, and group B to <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>.\u00a0<jats:italic>globosa<\/jats:italic>. The sequences of the amplicons targeted on the spacer region in mtDNA of <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>.\u00a0<jats:italic>globosa<\/jats:italic> ranged 510\u2013515\u00a0bp in length and exhibited 10 molecular variations, whereas <jats:italic>CAL<\/jats:italic> indicated seven molecular variations. In conclusion, most of the <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>.\u00a0<jats:italic>schenckii sensu lato<\/jats:italic> strains isolated from Japanese sporotrichosis patients were confirmed as <jats:italic>S.\u00a0globosa<\/jats:italic>, because group B, which comprised the majority of strains, matched perfectly with <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>.\u00a0<jats:italic>globosa<\/jats:italic> by the <jats:italic>CAL<\/jats:italic> sequencing study. We proposed sequence variations in the spacer between atp9 and cox2 genes of mtDNA as a suitable molecular epidemiological marker for <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>.\u00a0<jats:italic>globosa<\/jats:italic>.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/1346-8138.16235","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,19]],"date-time":"2021-11-19T06:53:37Z","timestamp":1637304817000},"page":"263-271","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Genotyping of intraspecies polymorphisms of <i>Sporothrix globosa<\/i> using partial sequence of mitochondrial DNA"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"49","author":[{"given":"Hirokazu","family":"Mochizuki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Kanazawa Medical University  Uchinada Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kazushi","family":"Anzawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Kanazawa Medical University  Uchinada Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3793-980X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Takashi","family":"Mochizuki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Kanazawa Medical University  Uchinada Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.00081-06"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.00808-07"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00436813"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00436084"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/mmy.38.6.433.436"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3314\/jjmm.50.19"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3314\/mmj.16-00005"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1346-8138.2011.01379.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.37.4.920-924.1999"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/B978-0-12-372180-8.50042-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3314\/jjmm.45.165"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/mmy\/myu062"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/oxfordjournals.aje.a116521"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01795173"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/emi.2017.75"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1099\/jmm.0.000451"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1099\/jmm.0.000896"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1369-5274(03)00088-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7883\/yoken.JJID.2020.809"}],"container-title":["The Journal of Dermatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/1346-8138.16235","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1111\/1346-8138.16235","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/1346-8138.16235","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,27]],"date-time":"2023-08-27T03:35:55Z","timestamp":1693107355000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/1346-8138.16235"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,18]]},"references-count":19,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,2]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/1346-8138.16235"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/1346-8138.16235","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0385-2407","1346-8138"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0385-2407","type":"print"},{"value":"1346-8138","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,18]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2021-07-28","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2021-11-05","order":1,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2021-11-18","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
