The Table summarizes the data for the rDNA segments ETS, 18S, ITS1, 5.8S, ITS2, 28S and NTS. “L” includes the length of the sequence assembled for the corresponding DNA segment in base pairs, “S” the source of the sequence and “C” its completeness.
Full: full length of genomic segment available; part.: only partial sequence of the genomic segment available; t.s.: this study; number in square brackets: published reference; alphanumeric number: Genbank/EMBL accession number. Accession numbers in italics refer to sequences obtained from public databases (Genbank/EMBL) for which no published reference is indicated. The question marks refer to the uncertainty as to the completeness of the sequence (see Results).
