Cryptococcus neoformans Strains and Infection in Apparently Immunocompetent Patients, China

Cryptococcus neoformans Strains and Infection in Apparently Immunocompetent Patients, China

To determine the population structure of the cryptococcosis agents in China, we analyzed the genotype of 120 Cryptococcus neoformans and 9 Cryptococcus gattii strains isolated from 1980 through 2006 from cryptococcosis patients residing in 16 provinces of mainland China. A total of 71% (91/129) of t...
