Whole genome sequence analysis of Cryptococcus gattii from the Pacific Northwest reveals unexpected diversity.

Whole genome sequence analysis of Cryptococcus gattii from the Pacific Northwest reveals unexpected diversity.

A recent emergence of Cryptococcus gattii in the Pacific Northwest involves strains that fall into three primarily clonal molecular subtypes: VGIIa, VGIIb and VGIIc. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and variable number tandem repeat analysis appear to identify little diversity within these molecula...
