Comparative Genome Analysis of <italic toggle="yes">Trichophyton rubrum</italic> and Related Dermatophytes Reveals Candidate Genes Involved in Infection

ABSTRACT The major cause of athlete’s foot is Trichophyton rubrum, a dermatophyte or fungal pathogen of human skin. To facilitate molecular analyses of the dermatophytes, we sequenced T. rubrum and four related species, Trichophyton tonsurans, Trichophyton equinum, Microsporum canis, and Microsporum...
