Genomic diversity of the pathogenic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus in Japan reveals the complex genomic basis of azole resistance

Abstract Aspergillus fumigatus is a pathogenic fungus with a global distribution. The emergence of azole-resistant A. fumigatus (ARAf) other than the TR-mutants is a problem in Japan. Additionally, the genetic diversity of A. fumigatus strains in Japan remains relatively unknown. Here we show the di...
