BACKGROUND: Aspergillus fumigatus is the main cause of invasive aspergillosis and triazole antifungals are the primary treatment option. The effectiveness of triazole therapy is hampered by the emergence of resistance, mainly caused by mutations in the cyp51A gene and a tandem repeat (TR) of 34 bases (TR34/Leu98His) and 46 bases (TR46/Tyr121Phe/Thr289Ala) in the promoter region, which correspond with signature...
