Genome Diversity, Recombination, and Virulence across the Major Lineages of <italic toggle="yes">Paracoccidioides</italic>

ABSTRACT The Paracoccidioides genus includes two species of thermally dimorphic fungi that cause paracoccidioidomycosis, a neglected health-threatening human systemic mycosis endemic to Latin America. To examine the genome evolution and the diversity of Paracoccidioides spp., we conducted whole-geno...
