Exophiala xenobiotica strain:CBS 102455 Genome sequencing and assembly. Exophiala xenobiotica strain:CBS 102455

Exophiala xenobiotica is morphologically very similar to E. jeanselmei , though with less melanized conidiogenous cells, but deviates unambiguously on the basis of molecular phylogeny. The species is a relatively common agent of cutaneous infections in humans, whereas E. jeanselmei is associated with subcutaneous infections. Environmental strains of E. xenobiotica are frequently found in habitats rich in monoaromatic hydrocarbons and alkanes

异养外瓶霉（Exophiala xenobiotica）在形态学上与甄氏外瓶霉（E. jeanselmei）高度相似，但其产孢细胞的黑色素化程度更低，且可通过分子系统发育特征得到明确区分。该物种是人类皮肤感染较为常见的致病菌，而甄氏外瓶霉则多与皮下感染相关。异养外瓶霉的环境菌株常存在于富含单环芳烃与烷烃的生境中。
