Background: The gut microbiota is a key hallmark of tumor and plays a central role in colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the contribution of gut fungi, an important community of gut microbes, remains substantially understudied in CRC.
Objective: To characterize the gut fungal landscape in CR...
Ecologically derived synthetic communities can provide robust plant benefits, yet generalizable rules for assembling multifunctional consortia remain limited. We hypothesized that a “top-down” community assembled from an ecological core would yield complementary functions and resilience superior ...
