Understanding Mucor circinelloides pathogenesis by comparative genomics and phenotypical studies

Understanding Mucor circinelloides pathogenesis by comparative genomics and phenotypical studies

The increasing number of infections by species of Mucorales and their high mortality constitute an important concern for public health. This study aims to decipher the genetic basis of Mucor circinelloides pathogenicity, which displays virulence in a strain dependent manner. Assuming that genetic di...
