A population genomic characterization of copy number variation in the opportunistic fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus.

Aspergillus fumigatus is a potentially deadly opportunistic fungal pathogen. Molecular studies have shaped our understanding of the genes, proteins, and molecules that contribute to A. fumigatus pathogenicity, but few studies have characterized genome-wide patterns of genetic variation at the popula...
