Amplified fragments were visualized on 1% agarose
gel and extracted using a DNA Gel-Out (DNA-Gdansk II s.c. Poland).
PCR products were cleaned and sequenced with the use of a BigDye
Terminator Cycle Sequencing Ready Reaction Kit (Applied Biosystems,
Warrington). The obtained sequences were compared
using BlastN against all identified fungal sequences in GenBank.
Molecular identification of fungal strains was confirmed by macroand
microscopic observations of growingmycelia with use of stereo
microscope Nikon SMZ800 and light microscope Nikon Eclipse 600
with Nomarski differential interference contrast.
