Congenic strains of the filamentous form of Cryptococcus neoformans for studies of fungal morphogenesis and virulence.

Infection and immunity - 1 Jul 2013

Abstract excerpt

Cryptococcus neoformans is an unconventional dimorphic fungus that can grow either as a yeast or in a filamentous form. To facilitate investigation of genetic factors important for its morphogenesis and pathogenicity, congenic a and α strains for a filamentous form were constructed. XL280 (α) was...
