Abstract excerpt
Background: Magnusiomyces clavatus is an emerging fungal pathogen primarily infecting immunocompromised patients hospitalized in hematological wards. Its remarkable genetic homogeneity makes high-resolution phylogenetic analysis challenging, hindering efforts to accurately discriminate strains and complicating epidemiological surveillance, particularly in the context of hospital outbreaks. Methods: In this study,...
