Skin innate immune response against fungal infections and the potential role of trained immunity Open
Fungal skin infections are distributed worldwide and can be associated with economic and social traits. The immune response related to skin cells is complex and its understanding is essential to the comprehension of each cell's role and th…

Sugarcane: an unexpected habitat for black yeasts in Chaetothyriales Open
Sugarcane ( Saccharum officinarum , Poaceae ) is cultivated on a large scale in (sub)tropical regions such as Brazil and has considerable economic value for sugar and biofuel production. The plant is a rich substrate for endo- and epiphyti…

New Insights on Environmental Occurrence of Pathogenic Fungi Based on Metagenomic Data from Brazilian Cerrado Biome Open
Cerrado is the second largest biome in Brazil and majorly contributes to the country's grain production. Previous studies on soil metagenomics from the Cerrado revealed an outstanding microbial diversity. In this study, the abundance of pa…

Agrobacterium tumefaciens-Mediated Transformation of Fonsecaea monophora and Fonsecaea erecta for Host-Environment Interaction Studies Open
The fungal genus Fonsecaea contains etiological agents of human chromoblastomycosis, a (sub)tropical, (sub)cutaneous implantation disease caused by plant contact. The invasive potential differs significantly between species. Infections by …

Environmental Screening of Fonsecaea Agents of Chromoblastomycosis Using Rolling Circle Amplification Open
Chromoblastomycosis is a chronic, cutaneous or subcutaneous mycosis characterized by the presence of muriform cells in host tissue. Implantation disease is caused by melanized fungi related to black yeasts, which, in humid tropical climate…

Genomics and Virulence of Fonsecaea pugnacius, Agent of Disseminated Chromoblastomycosis Open
Among agents of chromoblastomycosis, Fonsecaea pugnacius presents a unique type of infection because of its secondary neurotropic dissemination from a chronic cutaneous case in an immunocompetent patient. Neurotropism occurs with re…

Comparative Genomics of Sibling Species of Fonsecaea Associated with Human Chromoblastomycosis Open
Fonsecaea and Cladophialophora are genera of black yeast-like fungi harboring agents of a mutilating implantation disease in humans, along with strictly environmental species. The current hypothesis suggests that those specie…

Genome Sequence of Type Strain <i>Fonsecaea multimorphosa</i> CBS 980.96 <sup>T</sup> , a Causal Agent of Feline Cerebral Phaeohyphomycosis Open
A draft genome sequence of type strain Fonsecaea multimorphosa CBS 980.96 T was obtained. This species was first isolated from a cat with cerebral phaeohyphomycosis in Queensland, Australia.

Draft Genome Sequence of <i>Fonsecaea nubica</i> Strain CBS 269.64, Causative Agent of Human Chromoblastomycosis Open
On the basis of multilocus phylogenetic data, Fonsecaea nubica was described in 2010 as a molecular sibling of F. monophora , an established agent of the human skin disease chomoblastomycosis in tropical zones. Genome analysis of these pat…

Draft Genome Sequence of <i>Fonsecaea monophora</i> Strain CBS 269.37, an Agent of Human Chromoblastomycosis Open
The black yeast Fonsecaea monophora is one of the main etiologic agents of chromoblastomycosis in humans. Its pathogenicity profile is more invasive than that of related Fonsecaea species, causing brain infection in addition to (sub)cutane…
