Characterizing the pathogenic, genomic, and chemical traits of <i>Aspergillus fischeri</i> , a close relative of the major human fungal pathogen <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i>

2018-09-29

Abstract excerpt

Aspergillus fischeri is closely related to Aspergillus fumigatus , the major cause of invasive mold infections. Even though A. fischeri is commonly found in diverse environments, including hospitals, it rarely causes invasive disease; why that is so is unclear. Comparison of A. fischeri and A. fumigatus for diverse pathogenic, genomic, and secondary metabolic traits revealed multiple differences for pathogenes...
