Dynamics of Aspergillus fumigatus in Azole Fungicide-Containing Plant Waste in the Netherlands (2016–2017)
Aspergillus fumigatus is consistently present independently on season at a high abundance in plant waste material throughout the sampling period. Our study confirmed that long-term storage sites of azole-containing decaying plant material can indeed be considered hot spots, which can sustain resistance development and maintenance in A. fumigatus . Roughly half of individual isolates were azole resistant and carried genetic mutations that are highly similar to those found in patients with azole-resistant invasive aspergillosis. Our work suggests that environmental sources of azole resistance in... Mehr ...
