Abstract:
Chromosome-specific DNA probes were isolated to identify a particular chromosome in various karyotype band patterns of Pneumocystis. Bands in two P. carinii karyotype patterns hybridized to various DNA probes indicated that homologous chromosomes are of relatively similar sizes in the two P. carinii strains.
