Black Yeasts and Their Filamentous Relatives: Principles of Pathogenesis and Host Defense

30 Jun 2014

Abstract excerpt

Among the melanized fungi, the so-called "black yeasts" and their filamentous relatives are particularly significant as agents of severe phaeohyphomycosis, chromoblastomycosis, and mycetoma in humans and animals. The pathogenicity and virulence of these fungi may differ significantly between closely related species. The factors which probably are of significance for pathogenicity include the presence of melanin...
