Phylogenetic analysis of Histoplasma capsulatum fungi sequences from a case of disseminated histoplasmosis, Taiwan, 2024. Phylogenetic tree was constructed by using the neighbor-joining method on the basis of concatenated multilocus sequence typing analysis of 4 genes (arf, H-anti, ole, and tub). Bootstrap support for the relevant internal node was 91% on the basis of 1,000 replicates. Red star indicates isolate sequenced from our study (GenBank accession nos. PX954369 [arf], PX954370 [H-anti], PX954371 [ole], and PX954372 [tub]). Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site. BR, Brazilian; LAmA1, Latin American A1; LAmA2, Latin American A2; LAmB, Latin American B; NAm1, North American 1; NAm3, North American 3; RJ, Rio de Janeiro.
