Figure 2

Phylogenetic analysis of Candida tropicalis in study of detection in orchards of predominant azole-resistant genotype causing human candidemia, Taiwan. Red numbers indicate fluconazole resistance at MICs of >8 mg/L. We conducted whole-genome sequencing of 31 isolates. Sequence comparisons indicated that all but 1 clade 4 isolate was fluconazole resistant and that isolates from orchards and patients were genetically related. Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site. ATCC, American Type Tissue Collection; DST, diploid sequence type, ND, not determined.
