Selection of Candida albicans trisomy during oropharyngeal infection results in a commensal-like phenotype.

Selection of Candida albicans trisomy during oropharyngeal infection results in a commensal-like phenotype.

When the fungus Candida albicans proliferates in the oropharyngeal cavity during experimental oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC), it undergoes large-scale genome changes at a much higher frequency than when it grows in vitro.
