Hybrids and hybridization in the Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii species complexes

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2018
The basidiomycetous yeasts of the Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii species complexes (CNSC and CGSC respectively) are the causative agents of cryptococcosis, a set of life-threatening diseases affecting the central nervous system, lungs, skin, and other body sites of humans and other mammals. Both the CNSC and CGSC can be subdivided into
