Importance of Resolving Fungal Nomenclature: the Case of Multiple Pathogenic Species in the <italic toggle="yes">Cryptococcus</italic> Genus
ABSTRACT Cryptococcosis is a major fungal disease caused by members of the Cryptococcus gattii and Cryptococcus neoformans species complexes. After more than 15 years of molecular genetic and phenotypic studies and much debate, a proposal for a taxonomic revision was made. The two varieties within C...
