Evidence for positive selection in putative virulence factors within the Paracoccidioides brasiliensis species complex.

PLoS neglected tropical diseases - 17 Sept 2008

Matute Daniel R, Quesada-Ocampo Lina M, Rauscher Jason T, McEwen Juan G

Abstract excerpt

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is a dimorphic fungus that is the causative agent of paracoccidioidomycosis, the most important prevalent systemic mycosis in Latin America. Recently, the existence of three genetically isolated groups in P. brasiliensis was demonstrated, enabling comparative studies...
