Genomic and phenotypic insights into the expanding phylogenetic landscape of the <i>Cryptococcus</i> genus

2025-06-24

Abstract excerpt

The fungal genus Cryptococcus includes several life-threatening human pathogens as well as diverse saprobic species whose genome architecture, ecology, and evolutionary history remain less well characterized. Understanding how some lineages evolved into major pathogens remains a central challenge and may be advanced by comparisons with their nonpathogenic counterparts. Integrative approaches have become essential...
