Deadly New Fungal Superbug

Climate change seems to be a factor.

Deadly New Fungal Superbug
Deadly new fungal superbug is worrying doctors — here's what you need to know
LOL

And as expected the linkage to warming and/or cause is nonexistent...

"a study has suggested climate change may be playing a role in its troubling rise."

No evidence was presented to validate this claim.

Now it couldn't be that these cities are human waste shit holes, could it?

And still no empirical link. You dont think that living in excrement is the major issue?
 
We have not yet found the heat-shock link in the article mentioned in post #3. The azole link is found there. Note that azoles, especially triazoles, are the link to Rachel Carson's Cranberry Scandal of 1958: herbicides. Thus, spraying herbicides in Florida lakes just to get rid of the chemicals so that it coincides with an economic budget is the pathology we are pointing to.

#2 is full of it. Michigan State University has been documenting heat-shock proteins in fungi for the last two decades, and they have the largest database in the world for water molds. Badger2 worked in the Cantino lab. Go to Lansing, visit the Cantino lab, and start laughing around. See what happens.

I don't know what the major issues are. Perhaps you should download the paper from the American Society for Microbiology at the link provided to you and read it and let us know how you know more than them about this particular fungus.
 
#7: any reader of English can also hunt for the temperature link in the article you mention, if it is there. The article from China and Canada in post #6 proves badger's argument for the temperature link to C. auris.
 
Kronstad is editor of American Society for Microbiology article, which article does mention HSP90 and drug resistance. Michigan State University was doing pioneering, cutting-edge documentation of fungal heat shock proteins at least as far back as 1998.
 
So posts # 9 and 10 are stupid, reactionary, cynical and in need of education on this subject. But the incorrigible should not be forced to read their mother tongue unless there is a pop-quiz in front of everyone to prove that what we are saying is true.
 
"This study confirmed that genetically engineered microalgae grown in open ponds will escape and spread into the environment. Once this genie is out of the bottle, there is no way to put it back," said Dana Perls, senior campaigner with Friends of the Earth.

"Not only is it impossible to contain GE algae in open air production, but there are currently no adequate regulations which fully address its risks to our environment, from lab to final product. Without this essential oversight, there should be no environmental release or commercial uses of GE algae and other synthetic biology organisms."

Microalgae are essential ecosystem regulators. They provide more than half of the oxygen in our atmosphere and are the base of aquatic food chains. Microalgae reproduce rapidly and are capable of horizontal gene transfer, meaning that engineered traits can quickly spread, even to unrelated species. There is concern that engineered traits may not remain stable over time. All of these characteristics suggest introduced genes could spread rapidly out of control and change over time in unpredictable ways. In addition, microalgae have produced toxic algae blooms and GE microalgae may be more harmful and difficult to control

The article in post #14 states: ' 5. plants never exposed to the biocontrol fungus.'

This is the same scenario with the introduced Chinese fungus in 1900, Cronartium ribicola, which is now killing trees in Crater National Park. No GMOs required.

The 27 kDa heat-shock protein found in human breast cancer compares with Pseudoperonospora-induced proteins:
