Pathogenic fungi are a growing health concern worldwide, due to the opportunistic nature. Fungi are everywhere. There are millions of different fungal species on earth. Fungal diseases are often caused by fungi that are common in environment. Mycotic infections have become very frequent in recent years. Normally mycosis occurs in compromised individuals.
