Abstract Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) diversity was investigated in 38 isolants ofCladosporium carrionii in Africa (3 isolants), Australia (10), China (15) and Venezuela (10).C. carrionii was classified into 4 mtDNA types (Type I to Type IV) based on the restriction patterns withMspI,Sau3AI andHaeIII. All the 15 strains in China and 9 of 10 strains in Venezuela showed Type I, while all the 10 strains in Australia showed Type II. These results suggested a correlation between the mtDNA types and geographic origin.
