The First Isolation of Cryptococcus neoformans from Eucalyptus Trees in South Aegean and Mediterranean Regions of Anatolia in Turkey despite Taurus Mountains alkalinity
Copyright policy )The First Isolation of Cryptococcus neoformans from Eucalyptus Trees in South Aegean and Mediterranean Regions of Anatolia in Turkey despite Taurus Mountains alkalinity
Eucalyptus trees are widespread in subtropical parts of Turkey that have alkaline environments due to the soil structure of Taurus Mountains. In this study, the existence of Cryptococcus neoformans in eucalyptus trees in the South Aegean and Mediterranean Regions of Anatolia, Turkey, was screened between March 1998 and September 2002. Only one strain of Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii (Serotype A) was isolated from 1175 eucalyptus samples including debris and flowers in culture by Guizotia abyssinica agar. The environmental niche of the isolate was Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehn in the Gokova Region, in the western part of the Taurus Mountains. In this study, the existence of Cryptococcus neoformans was shown in the eucalyptus flora of Turkey despite the alkaline soil condition.
