Chromosome-level genome assembly of a human fungal pathogen reveals synteny among geographically distinct species

2021-07-13

Abstract excerpt

Histoplasma capsulatum , a dimorphic fungal pathogen, is the most common cause of fungal respiratory infections in immunocompetent hosts. Histoplasma is endemic in the Ohio and Mississippi River Valleys in the United States and also distributed worldwide. Previous studies revealed at least eight clades, each specific to a geographic location: North American classes 1 and 2 (NAm 1 and NAm 2), Latin American groups...
