Abstract Recently, fungal infections originating from the probiotic Saccharomyces ‘boulardii’ yeast are increasingly reported. Here, we aimed to reveal the background of and to diminish the virulence of this yeast, mitigating infection risks in vulnerable patient groups. Product and human isolates of S. ‘boulardii’ were subjected to in-host selection and their subclone lineages were compared phenotypically to identify target phenotypes and associated genes.
