Abstract excerpt
Background: The extensive deployment of molecular genotyping methods is the top reliable keyword to characterize the population genetic structure of C. neoformans in the past decade. However, studies involving genotypic analysis of C. neoformans var. grubii from China and Japan are limited. Objectives: We address this challenge to determine the genotype distribution of C. neoformans var. grubii strains from China...
