DOI: 10.1093/jac/dkx168
Abstract: Background: Azole resistance in isolates of the fungus Aspergillus fumigatus has been associated with agricultural use of azole fungicides. Environmental isolation of resistant isolates has been reported in Asia, Africa, Europe and South America. Objectives:… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/myc.12655
Abstract: Aspergillus fumigatus is a saprophytic fungus that can cause lethal invasive aspergillosis in immunocompromised patients. Recent studies have shown that Eurasian and North American populations of A. fumigatus often consist of genetically diverse strains. However,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3314/mmj.18.010
Abstract: Aspergillus fumigatus is a saprophytic fungus that is a major causative pathogen for aspergillosis. Only a few classes of antifungals are used for treating this life-threatening fungal infection. Azoles are the first-line drugs and are… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/jof4030103
Abstract: Azole resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus is most frequently conferred by mutations in the cyp51A gene encoding 14α-sterol demethylases. TR34/L98H and TR46/Y121F/T289A are the two most common mutations associated with environmental resistance selection. We studied the… read more here.
