TMMI-012 identifies as a closely related Scedosporium to Scedosporium boydii. a Maximum-likelihood tree of β-tubulin gene sequences of TMMI-012 isolate (isolation number A93A2G4) and reference strains. The tree is drawn to scale and the branch lengths corresponding to the number of substitutions per site. Bootstrap support values above ≥50% (1000 replicates) are indicated at the branches. Accession numbers of Scedosporium sequence and known strains are retrieved from GenBank. Cryphonectriaceae sp. MRAR-2018a isolates: CMW41330 and CMW41322 were used as outgroups. b Morphological features of TMMI-012 (top-view: upper left, reverse-view: upper right) 7-day-old culture at 37 °C on PDA. Microscopical examination with lactophenol cotton blue stain of conidia (lower left, scale bar ~ 20 μm) and the SEM micrograph of conidium (lower right, scale bar ~ 10 μm). Notice the conidial size is 8.18 ± 0.16 μm. (n = 30). c Morphological features of S. boydii (top-view: upper left, reverse-view: upper right) 7-day-old culture at 37 °C on PDA. Microscopical examination with lactophenol cotton blue stain of conidia (lower left, scale bar ~ 20 μm) and the SEM micrograph of conidium (lower right, scale bar ~ 10 μm). Notice the conidial size is 4.08 ± 0.23 μm. (n = 30)
