Abstract excerpt
We analysed 498 global Aspergillus fumigatus isolates using multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat (MLVA) typing to investigate regional clustering, environmental-clinical overlap, and azole resistance patterns. The dataset, which included 155 newly genotyped Korean strains, revealed extensive genotypic diversity and four distinct phylogeographic clusters. Resistance-associated mutations (TR34/TR46) appeared...
