Multi-omics analysis of a traditional fermented food reveals a byproduct-associated subpopulation of Neurospora intermedia for waste-to-food upcycling

This study uses multi-omics analysis to characterize Neurospora intermedia in oncom, revealing its role in byproduct conversion and potential for waste-to-food upcycling.

Virulence of Fusarium oxysporum strains causing corneal or plant disease is associated with their accessory chromosomes

This study compares two Fusarium oxysporum strains causing human and plant diseases, finding differences in virulence and accessory chromosomes associated with host adaptation.
