Impacts of abiotic factors on the fungal communities of ‘Honeycrisp’ apples in Canada
The maintenance of the beneficial plant microbiome to control plant pathogens is an emerging concept of disease management, and necessitates a clear understanding of these microbial communities and the environmental factors that affect their diversity ...

The fecal microbiome in dogs with acute diarrhea and idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease. [PDF]
Recent molecular studies have revealed a highly complex bacterial assembly in the canine intestinal tract. There is mounting evidence that microbes play an important role in the pathogenesis of acute and chronic enteropathies of dogs, including ...

Fungal microbiomes are determined by host phylogeny and exhibit widespread associations with the bacterial microbiome [PDF]
ABSTRACT Interactions between hosts and their resident microbial communities are a fundamental component of fitness for both agents. Though recent research has highlighted the importance of interactions between animals and their bacterial communities, comparative evidence for fungi is lacking, especially in natural populations.

Dynamic Changes of the Fungal Microbiome in Alcohol Use Disorder [PDF]
BackgroundAlcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The intestinal microbiota is involved in the development and progression of ALD; however, little is known about commensal fungi therein.MethodsWe studied the dynamic changes of the intestinal fungal microbiome, or mycobiome, in 66 patients with ...

Key determinants of the fungal and bacterial microbiomes in homes [PDF]
The microbiome of the home is of great interest because of its possible impact on health. Our goal was to identify some of the factors that determine the richness, evenness and diversity of the home's fungal and bacterial microbiomes.Vacuumed settled dust from homes (n=35) in Cincinnati, OH, were analyzed by pyrosequencing to determine the fungal and ...

Drought Influences Fungal Community Dynamics in the Grapevine Rhizosphere and Root Microbiome [PDF]
Plant roots support complex microbial communities that can influence nutrition, plant growth, and health. In grapevine, little is known about the impact of abiotic stresses on the belowground microbiome.

Host genotype shapes the foliar fungal microbiome of balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera) [PDF]
Foliar fungal communities of plants are diverse and ubiquitous. In grasses endophytes may increase host fitness; in trees, their ecological roles are poorly understood.

The total fungal microbiome functionality [PDF]
Unveiling the relationship between taxonomy and function of the microbiome is crucial to determine its contribution to ecosystem functioning. However, while there is a considerable amount of information on microbial taxonomic diversity, our understanding of its relationship to functional diversity is still scarce.
