VNTR analysis of environmental samples.

UA, unassigned, OTS, genotypic designation of unidentified MPM, NP, none positive. ND, not done, 0, no amplification. BAF-3 was confirmed as M. marinum from BLAST searches. Two water bodies (Wro-Offin and Mon-Offin) are not shown because no VNTR loci was amplified for any of the samples collected. MU presence was independent (P = 0.8081) of the type of water body (river, stream or pond). VNTR analysis of environmental samples.
