摘要
Lomentospora prolificans has caused outbreaks in immunocompromised patients. We performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) on 4 L. prolificans isolates from infections occurring during an 8-month period in the haematology unit at Hospital 1., and 2 isolates from unrelated infections at Hospital 2., showing a high number of mutational differences (> 10,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms) between L. prolificans isolates from Hospital 1. Novel typing of isolates by WGS did not demonstrate a single causative strain.
