Phylogenetic Profiling of the Diabetic Foot Ulcer Microbiome of an Afro‐Caribbean Population

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Illumina amplicon sequencing revealed diverse bacterial and fungal communities in chronic diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) and adjacent normal skin from Afro‐Caribbean patients. Corynebacterium striatum dominated both sites. DFUs had higher relative abundance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the antifungal‐resistant Candida duobushaemulonii, with significantly

PCR-based characterisation of entomopathogenic fungi for ecological studies [PDF]

, 2008
The implementation of PCR-based tools for characterisation of organisms has greatly advanced our understanding of the phylogenies and species boundaries in entomopathogenic fungi, especially the widespread taxa Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium ...

Divergent Resilience of Bacterial and Fungal Gut Microbiota After Colorectal Surgery: Insights From a Prospective Longitudinal Cohort Study

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Patients undergoing colorectal surgery (n = 59) were sampled before and after surgery to investigate perioperative microbiome dynamics. Using 16S rRNA and ITS2 genes amplicon sequencing, bacterial diversity significantly decreased postoperatively, while fungal communities remained resilient.

Humans vs. Fungi: An Overview of Fungal Pathogens against Humans

Pathogens
Human fungal diseases are infections caused by any fungus that invades human tissues, causing superficial, subcutaneous, or systemic diseases. Fungal infections that enter various human tissues and organs pose a significant threat to millions of ...

Comparative Metabarcoding of ITS1, ITS2, and Full‐Length ITS Reveals Marker‐ and Tissue‐Specific Variation in Fungal Community Profiling in Potato

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate profiling of plant‐associated fungal and oomycete communities depends critically on the choice of ITS marker. Using Illumina sequencing for ITS1/ITS2 and PacBio HiFi sequencing for full‐length ITS (ITSf), we compared read recovery, taxonomic assignment depth, and diversity patterns across potato leaf and root tissues.

Combined genetic and genomic approaches to characterize a durable Hevea resistance to South American leaf blight : S01T07 [PDF]

, 2013
The South American Leaf Blight (SALB), due to the Ascomycota Microcyclus ulei, threatens the world production of natural rubber, based on the cultivation of nearly only one species: the tropical tree Hevea brasiliensis.

Long‐Term Management Shapes Soil Microbial Communities Primarily Through Modulating Soil Habitat Quality in Swiss Croplands

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil microbial communities are key drivers of soil functioning in agricultural systems. Yet the relative influence of soil properties and cropping practices on their diversity remains insufficiently understood. We investigated 60 cropland sites in western Switzerland, covering a broad range of soil properties and cropping practices, to explore

Agronomic Performance and Microbial Diversity of Wheat Following Organic and Synthetic Seed Treatments: A Three‐Year On‐Farm Swiss Field Study

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Environmental stressors on the agricultural field are increasing, from global warming to the rise of the human population. Among the resulting challenges, plant diseases remain one of the most important causes of crop losses worldwide.

Malassezia restricta‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Drive Ovarian Cancer Progression Through JAK2/STAT3‐Mediated M2 Macrophage Polarisation

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
Schematic diagram of the potential mechanism by which Malassezia restricta promote ovarian cancer progression. Malassezia restricta‐derived extracellular vesicles promoted epithelial ovarian cancer progression by inducing M2 macrophage polarisation via activation of the JAK2/STAT3 signalling pathway.
