Intraspecific variable base positions within the ITS–D1/D2 regions of the single Yarrowia-like yeast genomes. Assemblies of the five genomes analyzed in this study contain different copy numbers of the ITS–D1/D2 regions (B02 = 3, C11 = 9, E02 = 9, F05 = 8, H10 = 1). To identify intraspecific variability among the rRNA copies, the genomes were analyzed separately without cross-species comparisons. Strains C11 and E02 showed high intraspecific variability of the assembled rRNA copies. In contrast, of the clade II strains B02, F05 and H10, only B02 displayed any intraspecific variability with three variable positions. Blue bars represent the sequence alignments of the ITS–D1/D2 region for each strain separately with the variable sequence positions marked as white bars. Numbers beneath the white bars are the numbers of adjacent variable positions. Positions of the primers that determine the ITS–D1/D2 region are shown as black arrows
