Amoeba Predation of Cryptococcus neoformans Results in Pleiotropic Changes to Traits Associated with Virulence

Amoeboid predators, such as amoebae, are proposed to select for survival traits in soil microbes such as Cryptococcus neoformans; these traits can also function in animal virulence by defeating phagocytic immune cells, such as macrophages. Consistent with this notion, incubation of various fungal sp...
