Highly Recombinant VGII <named-content content-type="genus-species">Cryptococcus gattii</named-content> Population Develops Clonal Outbreak Clusters through both Sexual Macroevolution and Asexual Microevolution
ABSTRACT An outbreak of the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus gattii began in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) in the late 1990s. This outbreak consists of three clonal subpopulations: VGIIa/major, VGIIb/minor, and VGIIc/novel. Both VGIIa and VGIIc are unique to the PNW and exhibit increased virulence. In thi...
