Coccidioides immitis and posadasii; A review of their biology, genomics, pathogenesis, and host immunity
Coccidioides immitis and C. posadasii are two highly pathogenic dimorphic fungal species that are endemic in the arid areas of the new world, including the region from west Texas to southern and central California in the USA that cause coccidioidomycosis (also known as Valley Fever). In highly endem...
