We investigated whether plants imported to Ireland from the Netherlands might harbor triazole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus. Samples of plant bulbs were positive for triazole-resistant A. fumigatus with CYP51A mutations. We hypothesize that this represents a route for intercountry transfer of an emerging resistance mechanism in a major opportunistic mold pathogen.
我们研究了从荷兰进口到爱尔兰的植物是否可能携带三唑耐药的烟曲霉。植物鳞茎样本中含有具有 CYP51A 突变的三唑耐药烟曲霉。我们假设这代表了一种主要机会性病原体中新兴耐药机制的跨国转移途径。
