Gene flow contributes to diversification of the major fungal pathogen Candida albicans

Gene flow contributes to diversification of the major fungal pathogen Candida albicans

The fungal pathogen Candida albicans can undergo a parasexual process that may contribute to genetic diversity, but its actual relevance is unclear. Here, Ropars et al. analyse the genomic sequences of 182 C. albicans isolates collected worldwide and find evidence of gene flow and thus parasexuality...
