Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I, Dr. Allan J. Guimarães, am serving as the Guest Editor for the Special Issue “Strategies for Fungal Survival and Reproduction within the Host and Natural Environments and Their Impact on Fungal Resistance to Antifungals” for the Journal of Fungi (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/jof/special_issues/). I am writing to invite you to contribute with a paper to this Special Issue. The Special Issue will bring to light genomics, gene regulation, and expression strategies for fungal adaptation to environmental and host stress, with an impact on virulence and fungal escape following host responses, and on the resistance to antifungal agents.
Dr. Allan J. Guimarães
Guest Editor
