Patterns of genomic variation in the opportunistic pathogen <i>Candida glabrata</i> suggest the existence of mating and a secondary association to the human host

2017-02-03

Abstract excerpt

Candida glabrata is an opportunistic fungal pathogen that ranks as the second most common cause of systemic candidiasis. Despite its genus name, this yeast is more closely related to the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae than to other Candida pathogens, and hence its ability to infect humans is thought to have emerged independently. Morover, C. glabrata has all the necessary genes to undergo a sexual cycle,...
