Abstract excerpt
The pathogen Crytococcus neoformans has been traditionally grouped in two varieties, C. neoforrmans var. neoformans (serotypes A, D and AD) and C. neoformans var. gattii (serotypes B and C). A recent taxonomic evaluation of C. neoformans var. neoformans described C. neoformans var. grubii as a new variety represented by serotype A isolates. Despite immunological, biochemical, ecological and molecular differences...
