Population Genetic Analysis Reveals a High Genetic Diversity in the Brazilian Cryptococcus gattii VGII Population and Shifts the Global Origin from the Amazon Rainforest to the Semi-arid Desert in the Northeast of Brazil

Linkage disequilibrium heat maps between polymorphic sites for all studied MLST loci (CAP59, GPD1, PLB1, SOD1, IGS1, LAC1 and URA5).
Pairwise D’ metricises are represented by heat colours (Colour Key). Recombination amongst Brazilian VGII strains has been shown, as evidenced amongst four sites (0.7%) in the locus CAP59 and six sites (0.8%) in the locus SOD1 (Fisher’s Exact Test P-value ≤ 0.05).
