Evidence for the agricultural origin of antimicrobial resistance in a fungal pathogen of humans

2020-05-25

Abstract excerpt

Resistance to clinical antimicrobials is an urgent problem, reducing our ability to combat deadly pathogens of humans. Azole antimicrobials target ergosterol synthesis and are highly effective against fungal pathogens of both humans and plants leading to their widespread use in clinical and agricultural settings 1,2 . The fungus Aspergillus fumigatus causes 300,000 life-threatening infections in susceptible huma...
