Genomic DNA from C. parapsilosis isolates was obtained with material/equipment of Roche Diagnostics GmbH (Mannheim, Germany). Briefly, we suspended each isolate in 400-μL MagNA Pure Bacteria Lysis Buffer in a tube prefilled with ceramic beads (MagNA Lyser Green Beads), and we used the MagNA Lyser instrument for 30 s at 6,500 rpm to lyse fungal cells mechanically. DNA was then extracted and purified using the MagNA Pure LC instrument with the MagNA Pure DNA isolation kit III (bacteria, fungi), according to the recommendations of the manufacturer.
