Host-Induced Genome Instability Rapidly Generates Phenotypic Variation across <named-content content-type="genus-species">Candida albicans</named-content> Strains and Ploidy States

ABSTRACT Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen of humans that is typically diploid yet has a highly labile genome tolerant of large-scale perturbations including chromosomal aneuploidy and loss-of-heterozygosity events. The ability to rapidly generate genetic variation is crucial for...
