The Hidden Burden of Triazole-Resistant Aspergillus tubingensis in Southern California

Accurate identification of pathogenic fungi is critical for effective treatment but remains challenging in clinical practice. Aspergillus tubingensis, often misidentified as A. niger, may differ in ecology, epidemiology, and triazole susceptibility. We investigated the prevalence and resistance patterns of A. tubingensis in a large U.S. healthcare system.This bioproject collection contains clinically obtained and sequenced black aspergillius from southern california.
