Ploidy Determination in the Pathogenic Fungus Sporothrix spp.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The pathogenic clade of the Sporothrix genus comprises the etiological agents of sporotrichosis, a worldwide emergent disease. Despite the growing understanding of their successful pathogen traits, there is little information on genome sizes and ploidy ...

CRISPR-based tools for targeted genetic manipulation in pathogenic Sporothrix species

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Sporothrix brasiliensis is an emerging fungal pathogen frequently associated with zoonotic transmission of sporotrichosis by contaminated cats. Within 25 years, the disease has spread not only throughout Brazil but now to neighboring countries in Latin ...

Molecular identification of Sporothrix species involved in the first familial outbreak of sporotrichosis in the state of Espírito Santo, southeastern Brazil

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
Sporotrichosis is a widespread subcutaneous mycosis caused by the dimorphic fungi now known as the Sporothrix schenckii complex. This complex is comprised of at least six species, including Sporothrix albicans, Sporothrix brasiliensis, Sporothrix globosa,

Comparative Genomic Data Provide New Insight on the Evolution of Pathogenicity in Sporothrix Species

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Sporothrix species are commonly isolated from environmental and clinical samples. As common causes of zoonotic mycosis, Sporothrix species may result in localized or disseminated infections, posing considerable threat to animal and human health. However,

Zoonotic Sporotrichosis in Paraguay: A Public Health Alert. [PDF]

Mycoses
ABSTRACT Background Cat‐transmitted sporotrichosis caused by Sporothrix brasiliensis is increasingly reported in the last three decades within Brazil. Recently, other South American countries like Argentina and Chile also reported cases, while the number of reported cases in Paraguay, a Brazilian neighbour, remains quite limited with 10 feline and ...

Biodegradation of gas-phase styrene using the fungus Sporothrix variecibatus: Impact of pollutant load and transient operation [PDF]

, 2010
Biofiltration of gas-phase styrene was studied using a newly isolated fungus Sporothrix variecibatus, in a perlite biofilter, at inlet concentrations and gas-flow rates ranging from 0.13 to 14 g m−3 and 0.075 to 0.34 m3 h−1, respectively, corresponding ...
