Abstract excerpt
Trichophyton fungal infections are common and increasingly complicated by terbinafine resistance. To support accurate molecular identification and resistance profiling, we provide a validated dataset of full-length squalene epoxidase (sqle) gene sequences from 493 Trichophyton isolates representing 18 species, addressing limited availability and misannotation of sqle sequences in public databases, particularly...
