Several fungi have recently been described as capable to recombine and drive large genetic diversity in clinical samples and in the environment. Among the genotyping methods, microsatellite analysis is frequently reported as preferred for studying local epidemiology, but single nucleotide polymorphisms represent the best markers for evaluation of recombination, linkage and aneuploidy. The future of typing analyses may reside in strategies capable of cataloging the whole genome and complete microbial diversity. The present review focuses the current strategies employed for fungal genotyping and evaluation of genetic diversity, and the challenges of next generation sequencing with regard to this topic. Typing methods establish the genetic identity of fungal isolates and allow clarification of outbreaks and transmission of strains between individuals, comparison of chronic colonization versus patients carrying unrelated strains, detection of co-evolution of pathogenic and/or drug-resistant strains. The next advances in molecular mycology may revolutionize clinics and redesign concepts of microbial evolution.
