The paper identifies Candida auris sequences in public metagenomic datasets using a new pipeline and volunteer computing.

The paper identifies chromosomal rearrangements and loss of subtelomeric adhesins in Clade II of Candida auris, linking these to reduced virulence and outbreak potential compared to other clades.

This study traces the global emergence and evolutionary history of Candida auris using population genomic analyses of isolates from 19 countries, identifying clades, phylogeographic patterns, and antifungal resistance mechanisms.

The paper analyzes genome assemblies and RNA-Seq data from Candida auris and related species to identify genomic features associated with drug resistance, mating potential, and virulence.

This study analyzes the population genomics of Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii, revealing hybridization, biogeographic relationships, and genetic structure across global isolates.

This study uses population genomics to explore how environmental selective pressures shaped virulence traits in Cryptococcus neoformans, identifying genetic differences between clinical and environmental isolates.
