High-quality genome assemblies provide new insights into the genomic architecture, adaptation, and virulence of neurotropic dematiaceous fungi implicated in cerebral phaeohyphomycosis - PubMed
Neurotropic dematiaceous fungi are primary agents of cerebral phaeohyphomycosis, a life-threatening brain infection with high mortality. However, the genomic basis underlying their virulence, stress tolerance, and antifungal resistance is poorly understood. In this study, we present high-quality hyb …
