The Candida Pathogenic Species Complex [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2014 Candida species are the most common causes of fungal infection. Approximately 90% of infections are caused by five species: Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis, Candida parapsilosis, and Candida krusei. Three (C. albicans, C. tropicalis, and C.
