Key Points

The aim is to correct previously reported findings on the role of chromosome changes in Histoplasma morphology and virulence.
Correction of existing data on chromosomal changes
Review of morphological and virulence traits
Analysis of implications for fungal pathogen behavior
Identification of rapid chromosome gain and loss
Association of these changes with specific morphology traits
Impact on virulence phenotypes was confirmed
