Clonality and α-a recombination in the Australian Cryptococcus gattii VGII population--an emerging outbreak in Australia.
<h4>Background</h4>Cryptococcus gattii is a basidiomycetous yeast that causes life-threatening disease in humans and animals. Within C. gattii, four molecular types are recognized (VGI to VGIV). The Australian VGII population has been in the spotlight since 2005, when it was suggested as...
