Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 499-515, March 2026.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

Metagenomic next-generation sequencing for the early diagnosis of talaromycosis in HIV-uninfected patients: five cases report

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background In recent years, talaromycosis is reportedly on the rise in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-uninfected patients. However, the misdiagnosis and mistreatment of talaromycosis is more likely in HIV-uninfected patients than in HIV-infected ...

Differential innate immune responses of human macrophages and bronchial epithelial cells against Talaromyces marneffei

mSphere, 2023
Talaromyces marneffei is a thermally dimorphic fungal pathogen endemic in Southeast Asia. As inhalation of airborne conidia is believed as the major infection route, airway epithelial cells followed by pulmonary macrophages are the first cell types which

1‐Year Clinical Outcome Post‐Myasthenic Crisis: A Multicenter Prospective Study in China

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 2, February 2026.
In this prospective cohort of 282 patients with myasthenic crisis (MC) episodes, all‐cause mortality was 15.16%. Among 247 patients who have completed 1‐year follow‐up, 79.76% achieved favorable outcomes with significant improvement in the MG‐activities of daily living (MG‐ADL) score.

Shifts in the Lung Microbiota and Antibiotic Resistance Genes Occur With Aging in Patients With Lower Respiratory Tract Infections

BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are a leading cause of critical illness and mortality. The lung microbiome represents an important reservoir for the exchange of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). The pathogenic microbes remain poorly understood among different age groups, including children (0–17 years), youth (18–39 years), middle‐aged ...

A novel narnavirus attenuates stress resistance and fungal virulence in Talaromyces marneffei

Mycology
Talaromyces marneffei is a lethal human pathogenic fungus endemic to Southeast Asia. While the previously reported mycovirus Talaromyces marneffei partitivirus 1 (TmPV1) enhances fungal virulence, we report the discovery of a second mycovirus ...

Next‐Generation Sequencing Expands the Diagnostic Armamentarium for Talaromyces marneffei Infection in Patients With Diverse Immune Status

International Journal of Clinical Practice, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Objective Metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS) has emerged as a promising tool for identifying rare fungal pathogens. This study evaluates the clinical utility of mNGS for the timely diagnosis of Talaromyces marneffei (TM) infection in patients with diverse immune statuses, particularly focusing on its diagnostic performance in culture ...
