FungiGutDB: Curated database for taxonomic assignment of the gut mycobiome by whole genome sequencing

FungiGutDB is a curated database for accurate gut mycobiome taxonomic assignment using whole genome sequencing, showing improved performance over standard databases in characterizing fungal communities in human microbiome studies.

Gut microbial ecosystems differ across metabolic and obesity phenotypes

The paper examines gut microbial ecosystems across different metabolic and obesity phenotypes, finding that metabolic health, not obesity, drives microbial connectivity and functional cohesion.

Uncovering the link between gut microbiome, highly processed food consumption and diet quality through bioinformatics methods

The paper identifies microbial genera associated with diet quality and diabetes risk using microbiome data and machine learning.

Bioinformatic methods for stratification of obese patients and identification of cancer susceptibility biomarkers based on the analysis of the gut microbiome

The paper identifies potential colorectal cancer biomarkers from the gut microbiome of obese individuals using machine learning and network biology.
