Cryptic fungal pathogens pose disease management challenges due to their morphological
resemblance to known pathogens. Here, we investigated the genomes and phenotypes of …

Accessing the natural genetic diversity of species unveils hidden genetic traits, clarifies gene
functions and allows the generalizability of laboratory findings to be assessed. One notable …

Modern taxonomic classification is often based on phylogenetic analyses of a few molecular
markers, although single-gene studies are still common. Here, we leverage genome-scale …

Aspergillus fumigatus is both an environmental saprobe and an opportunistic human fungal
pathogen. Knowledge of genomic variation across A. fumigatus isolates is essential for …

Many distantly related organisms have convergently evolved traits and lifestyles that enable
them to live in similar ecological environments. However, the extent of phenotypic …

Molecular evolution studies, such as phylogenomic studies and genome-wide surveys of
selection, often rely on gene families of single-copy orthologs (SC-OGs). Large gene …

Filamentous fungi are an essential source of bioactive mycotoxins. Recent efforts have
focused on developing antifungal agents that are effective against invasive yeasts, such as …

Multiple sequence alignments and phylogenetic trees are rich in biological information and
are fundamental to research in biology. PhyKIT is a tool for processing and analyzing the …

Cryptic fungal pathogens pose significant identification and disease management
challenges due to their morphological resemblance to known pathogenic species while …

Asgardarchaeota, commonly referred to as Asgard archaea, are a candidatus phylum-level
archaeal clade that includes the closest archaeal relatives of eukaryotes. Despite their …
