Abstract excerpt
Candida haemulonii complex species can be multidrug-resistant and cause infections such as candidemia. This study determined the genetic relationship between isolates from Brazil and the United States through whole-genome sequencing and performed antifungal susceptibility testing to investigate drug resistance. Contrary to what is widely described, most isolates were susceptible to azoles. However, an atypical...
