Clonality, inbreeding, and hybridization in two extremotolerant black yeasts
GigaScience, 2022 Abstract Background The great diversity of lifestyles and survival strategies observed in fungi is reflected in the many ways in which they reproduce and recombine. Although a complete absence of recombination is rare, it has been reported for some species, among them 2 extremotolerant black yeasts ...

Virulence Traits and Population Genomics of the Black Yeast Aureobasidium melanogenum [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2021 The black yeast-like fungus Aureobasidium melanogenum is an opportunistic human pathogen frequently found indoors. Its traits, potentially linked to pathogenesis, have never been systematically studied. Here, we examine 49 A. melanogenum strains for growth at 37 °C, siderophore production, hemolytic activity, and assimilation of hydrocarbons and human ...
