Abstract:
We present the first whole-genome-sequencing data of a rare fungal species, Candida theae isolated in the context of a Hickman line infection in a patient with juvenile myelomonocytic leukaemia. To our knowledge, this is the first instance of publicly available genomic data for this species. Loci associated with antifungal resistance were referenced against its closely related members of the Candida parapsilosis complex.
