Multilocus Sequence Typing Reveals Intrafamilial Transmission and Microevolutions of <i>Candida albicans</i> Isolates from the Human Digestive Tract
1 May 2006
Abstract excerpt
Candida albicans is a human commensal that is also responsible for superficial and systemic infections. Little is known about the carriage of C. albicans in the digestive tract and the genome dynamics that occur during commensalisms of this diploid species. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence, diversity, and genetic relationships among C. albicans isolates recovered during natural colonization of...
