Enterotypes of the human gut mycobiome
Abstract The fungal component of the human gut microbiome, also known as the mycobiome, plays a vital role in intestinal ecology and human health. Here, we identify and characterize four mycobiome enterotypes using ITS profiling of 3,363 samples from 16 cohorts across three continents, including 572 newly profiled ...

Roles for the mycobiome in liver disease [PDF]
AbstractLiver disease, a major cause of global mortality, has been associated with dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota (bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other microbes). Studies have associated changes in gut bacteria with pathogenesis and severity of liver disease, but the contributions of the mycobiome (the fungal populations of the gut) to health ...

The Blueberry Fruit Mycobiome Varies by Tissue Type and Fungicide Treatment
The microbial ecology of agricultural products may provide crucial insights into the management of postharvest fruit rots. To investigate postharvest microbial communities of highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum), five fungicide spray programs were ...

The Gut Mycobiome in Parkinson’s Disease
The gut microbiome has been increasingly implicated in Parkinson’s disease (PD); however, most existing studies employ bacterial-specific sequencing, and have not investigated non-bacterial microbiome constituents. Here, we use fungal-specific internal transcribed spacer (ITS)-2 amplicon sequencing in a cross-sectional PD cohort to investigate ...

Temporal dynamics of the chicken mycobiome
The microbiome is an integral part of chicken health and can affect immunity, nutrient utilization, and performance. The role of bacterial microbiota members in host health is relatively well established, but less attention has been paid to fungal members of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) community.

The air mycobiome is decoupled from the soil mycobiome in the California San Joaquin Valley [PDF]
AbstractDispersal is a key force in the assembly of fungal communities and the air is the dominant route of dispersal for most fungi. Understanding the dynamics of airborne fungi is important for determining their source and for helping to prevent fungal disease.

Background: Until recently, the properties of microbiome and mycobiome in humans and its relevance to disease have largely been unexplored. While the interest of microbiome and malignancy over the past few years have burgeoned with advent of new ...

The human mycobiome in health and disease [PDF]
The mycobiome, referring primarily to the fungal biota in an environment, is an important component of the human microbiome. Despite its importance, it has remained understudied. New culture-independent approaches to determine microbial diversity, such as next-generation sequencing methods, are greatly broadening our view of fungal importance.

The Domestic Environment and the Lung Mycobiome [PDF]
This study analyzes the relationship between the mycobiome of the Lower Respiratory Tract (LRT) and the fungi in the domestic environment. Samples studied consisted of Broncho-Alveolar Lavage (BAL) from 45 patients who underwent bronchoscopy for different diagnostic purposes, and dust and air from the houses (ENV) of 20 of them (44.4%).
