Wild-type Drosophila melanogaster as an alternative model system for investigating the pathogenicity of Candida albicans
Candida spp. are opportunistic pathogens in humans, and their systemic infections display upwards of 30% mortality in immunocompromised patients. Current mammalian model systems have certain disadvantages in that obtaining results is time consuming owing to the relatively long life spans and these r...
