Phenotypic characteristics of environmental Candida dubliniensis isolates and reference strain of C. albicans. A) Morphology of pseudohyphal terminal chlamydospores of C. albicans (ATCC90028) and C. dubliniensis SL370 grown at 37°C on Corn Meal Tween 80 agar. Magnification × 50. B) Growth of representative Great Saltee (SL) isolates on Sabouraud agar after 48 h of incubation at 37°C and 43°C. The growth of the following isolates is shown: C. albicans (ATCC90028), C. dubliniensis (NCPF3949), and C. dubliniensis SL370, SL397, SL407, and SL410 (clockwise from the top in each panel).
