Sporulation environment drives phenotypic variation in the pathogen <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i>

2019-10-08

Abstract excerpt

Aspergillus fumigatus causes more than 300,000 life-threatening infections annually and is widespread across varied environments with a single colony producing thousands of conidia, genetically-identical dormant spores. Conidia are easily wind-dispersed to new environments where they can germinate and, if inhaled by susceptible hosts, cause disease. Using high-throughput, single-cell analysis we show that germinat...
