This study shows that temperature during conidiophore development in Aspergillus fumigatus affects conidial transcriptomes, priming them for asexual, parasexual, or sexual development.

The paper shows that low-level intra-species contamination can mislead phylogenetic and admixture analyses in fungi, even at 5-10% contamination levels.

This study links triazole-resistant A. fumigatus isolates from environmental hotspots to clinical cases of aspergillosis, showing widespread clonal expansion that limits genomic epidemiology's ability to trace infection sources.

This study identifies a mutation rate increase in a multi-azole resistant Aspergillus fumigatus clade, linking it to rapid antifungal resistance evolution.

This study compares cell wall structure in Aspergillus nidulans and Aspergillus fumigatus using solid-state NMR, revealing similarities and differences in polysaccharide composition and organization.

This study investigates the evolutionary origins and ancestral features of septins by analyzing their phylogenetic distribution and structural evolution across eukaryotes.

This study identifies pan-azole- and multi-fungicide-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus in agricultural environments across 7 U.S. states.

This paper develops DEC-AmB-LLs, Dectin-1-coated antifungal liposomes, which significantly enhance the effectiveness of amphotericin B against fungal pathogens.
