The purpose of this review is to describe the tools used to detect genome changes, to highlight recent advances in our understanding of large scale chromosome changes that arise in C. albicans and to discuss the role of specific stresses in eliciting these genome changes. The types of genomic divers...
ORGANISM(S): Candida albicans 
Aneuploidy and the evolution of aneuploid karyotypes of Candida albicans strains was identified using aCGH. Whole chromosome and segmental aneuploidies, (specifically on the left arm of chromosome 5 - shown to be due to isochromosome formation) are associated with the appearance of resistance to th...
ORGANISM(S): Candida albicans 
Following antifungal treatment, Candida albicans, and other human pathogenic fungi can undergo microevolution, which leads to the emergence of drug resistance. However, the capacity for microevolutionary adaptation of fungi goes beyond the development of drug resistance. Here we used an experimental...
