Differential Thermotolerance Adaptation between Species of <i>Coccidioides</i>

Differential Thermotolerance Adaptation between Species of <i>Coccidioides</i>

Coccidioidomycosis, or Valley fever, is caused by two species of dimorphic fungi. Based on molecular phylogenetic evidence, the genus <i>Coccidioides</i> contains two reciprocally monophyletic species: <i>C. immitis</i> and <i>C. posadasii</i>. However, phenotypic...
