Cryptococcosis is a human infection caused mainly by two species of the Cryptococcus genus, Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii, whose populations contain several phylogenetically related haploid (VN/VG-types) and hybrid genotypes. Here, we report the whole-genome sequencing of a Nigerian C. neoformans VNII, Mat-α, strain with a rare multilocus-sequence-type (MLST) genotype (ST43).
隐球菌病是一种人类感染病，主要由两种隐球菌属物种引起，即新型隐球菌和格特隐球菌，它们的种群中包含几个在进化上相关的单倍体（VN/VG 型）和杂交基因型。在这里，我们报告了一株来自尼日利亚的新型隐球菌 VNII、Mat-α 菌株的全基因组测序，该菌株具有罕见的多位点序列型（MLST）基因型（ST43）。
