Phylogenetic trees of Nannizzia polymorpha in 2 patients with rare cases of skin dermatophytosis caused by this fungus. Trees were constructed by using MEGA 7.0 software (https://www.megasoftware.net) and the maximum-likelihood method on the basis of the internal transcribed spacer region (A) and combined datasets of internal transcribed spacer region, large subunit of ribosomal DNA, partial β-tubulin gene, translation elongation factor 3, and 60S ribosomal protein L10 (B). Red indicate strains isolated in this study. Tamura-Nei was used as a substitution model in both analyses. Numbers at nodes are bootstrap values. Scale bars indicate nucleotide substitutions per site.
