abstract：:Ultraviolet B light (UVB) can have negative phototropic effects on fungi. Candida albicans is often found on human skin exposed to UVB. Therefore, it is of medical interest to know whether a negative phototropic response to UVB irradiation can support an invasive growth of this potentially dangerous agent. In our stud...
