Population Genetic Analysis Reveals a High Genetic Diversity in the Brazilian Cryptococcus gattii VGII Population and Shifts the Global Origin from the Amazon Rainforest to the Semi-arid Desert in the Northeast of Brazil. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016
Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii are responsible globally for almost one million cryptococcosis cases yearly, mostly in immunocompromised patients, such as those living with HIV. Infections due to C.

Pulmonary Cryptococcosis in Apparently Immunocompetent Hosts: Host Susceptibility, Occult Immunodeficiency and Clinical Implications

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Pulmonary cryptococcosis (PC) in apparently immunocompetent hosts—now the majority of non‐HIV cases in Asia—cannot be explained by the traditional opportunistic infection paradigm. Three epidemiological observations point toward occult immune susceptibility: familial clustering documented in multiple case reports and small family studies ...

Cryptococcus neoformans var. gattii in Australia [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1987
An examination of 45 clinical isolates of Cryptococcus neoformans revealed an unusually high incidence of C. neoformans var. gattii in South Australia (65%) and in the Northern Territory (95%). In assessing all the available data from Australian isolates of C. neoformans, there appeared to be an endemic focus for the incidence of C.

Pioneer of Medical Mycology: In Memory of Prof. Friedrich Staib, MD, DVM

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT At the beginning of Friedrich Staib's academic career in the 1950s, medical mycology was a young discipline in Germany. He studied veterinary and human medicine, earning two doctorates. Initially fascinated by the changes in intestinal flora caused by the newly emerging broad‐spectrum antibacterials, i.e., the selection of fungi.
