The pathogenic clade of the <i>Sporothrix</i> genus comprises the etiological agents of sporotrichosis, a worldwide emergent disease. Despite the growing understanding of their successful pathogen traits, there is little information on genome sizes and ploidy within the genus. Therefore, in this work, we evaluated the ploidy of four species of the <i>Sporothrix</i> genus, specifically <i>Sporothrix brasiliensis</i>, <i>Sporothrix schenckii</i>, <i>Sporothrix globosa</i>, and <i>Sporothrix pallid ...[more]
