The effects of environmental and genetic factors on the germination of basidiospores in the Cryptococcus gattii species complex
Abstract
Natural and artificial hybridization has been frequently reported among divergent lineages within and between the two closely related human pathogenic fungi Cryptococcus gattii species complex and Cryptococcus neoformans species complex. However, the biological effects of such hybridization are not well known. Here we used five strains of the C. neoformans species complex and twelve strains of the C. gattii species complex to investigate the …
