*AAS, amino acid substitution; BSI, bloodstream infection; FR, fluconazole-resistant; F-SDD, fluconazole-susceptible dose-dependent; MLST, multilocus sequence typing; ST, sequence type.
†All 6 isolates showed multidrug resistance, defined as resistance to both fluconazole and echinocandins.
‡Includes 21 STs that were each unique to a single isolate.
§Each of 6 FR isolates harbored 2 additional Pdr1 AAS (E340G/D919Y [ST7], Y556C/F580I [ST7], N132S/G1099S [ST7], F832L/L833V [ST3], G189V/E340G [other ST], and L366P/E555D [other ST]).
¶Two F-SDD isolates harbored additional Pdr1 AAS (V502I [ST55] and R250K [other ST]).
