TL;DR: This article presents a widely supported and simple proposal to prevent unnecessary nomenclatural instability in molds and yeasts.
Book ChapterDOI
DNA- and PCR-fingerprinting in fungi
TL;DR: The application of DNA- and PCR-fingerprinting to fungal DNA should aid in clarification of their taxonomy and improved diagnosis of mycotic disease.

TL;DR: A greater genetic diversity and a wider range of major molecular types being present amongst Thai cryptococcal isolates than previously reported are revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Galleria mellonella model identifies highly virulent strains among all major molecular types of Cryptococcus gattii.
TL;DR: The results indicate that all C. gattii major molecular types exhibit a range of virulence, with some strains having the potential to be more virulent.
