Population genomics confirms acquisition of drug-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus infection by humans from the environment

open access: yesNature Microbiology, 2022
Infections caused by the fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus are increasingly resistant to first-line azole antifungal drugs. However, despite its clinical importance, little is known about how susceptible patients acquire infection from drug-resistant

Azole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus in the environment: Identifying key reservoirs and hotspots of antifungal resistance

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2021
Aspergillus fumigatus is an opportunistic human pathogen that causes aspergillosis, a spectrum of environmentally acquired respiratory illnesses. It has a cosmopolitan distribution and exists in the environment as a saprotroph on decaying plant matter ...

Discovery and characterization of novel Aspergillus fumigatus mycoviruses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
In the last few years, increasing numbers of viruses infecting fungi have been identified. In this study, we used an in silico approach for the analysis of deep RNA sequencing data in order to discover and characterize putative genomic ssRNA or dsRNA ...

Aspergillus fumigatus antigens [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology, 1995
Cytosolic fractions of mycelial extracts from Aspergillus nidulans, A. flavus, and three different isolates of A. fumigatus, grown to stationary phase in Czapek-Dox-AOAC medium, were tested by immunoblotting for the presence of antigens reactive to 80 serum samples from aspergilloma patients.

Inhibition of Aspergillus flavus Growth and Aflatoxin Production in Zea mays L. Using Endophytic Aspergillus fumigatus

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
Aspergillus flavus infection of vegetative tissues can affect the development and integrity of the plant and poses dangerous risks on human and animal health. Thus, safe and easily applied approaches are employed to inhibit A. flavus growth. To this end,

Validity of Platelia Aspergillus IgG and Aspergillus Precipitin Test To Distinguish Pulmonary Aspergillosis from Colonization

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
When Aspergillus, an ubiquitous, saprophytic fungus, is detected in respiratory tract specimens collected from chronic respiratory disease patients, it is important to determine whether it is a true infection or colonization.

Aspergillus fumigatusin Poultry [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Microbiology, 2011
Aspergillus fumigatusremains a major respiratory pathogen in birds. In poultry, infection byA. fumigatusmay induce significant economic losses particularly in turkey production.A. fumigatusdevelops and sporulates easily in poor quality bedding or contaminated feedstuffs in indoor farm environments.

A 20-Year Antifungal Susceptibility Surveillance (From 1999 to 2019) for Aspergillus spp. and Proposed Epidemiological Cutoff Values for Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus: A Study in a Tertiary Hospital in China

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The emergence of resistant Aspergillus spp. is increasing worldwide. Long-term susceptibility surveillance for clinically isolated Aspergillus spp. strains is warranted for understanding the dynamic change in susceptibility and monitoring the emergence ...
