Opportunistic pathogenicity in fungi can transcend species boundaries

This study compares phenotypic, metabolomic, and genomic variation between two Aspergillus species to determine factors distinguishing opportunistic pathogens from non-pathogens.

An integrative genomic and chemical similarity approach linking fungal secondary metabolites and biosynthetic gene clusters

The paper links fungal secondary metabolites to their biosynthetic gene clusters using genomic and chemical similarity, identifying 22 known pairs and hypothesizing 38 others in Aspergillus fischeri.

Strain heterogeneity in a non-pathogenic fungus highlights factors contributing to virulence

This study examines strain variation in a non-pathogenic fungus, identifying factors linked to virulence differences across strains.
