Host skin lipids trigger MAT-dependent mating, pathogenic hyphal growth, and parasexual reproduction of Malassezia furfur

Erica Patriarca, Bastien Tirtiaux, Marcia David Palma…·Giuseppe Ianiri

This study shows that Malassezia furfur hyphal growth depends on mating-type loci and is promoted by host skin lipids, linking parasexual reproduction to pathogenic traits.
