Abstract
Robinson et al. explore bacterial associations in over 700 phylogenetically diverse fungal isolates with 16 S rRNA sequencing of fungal collections from across the globe and bioinformatic screening of publicly available fungal genome sequencing projects. This study reveals that bacterial associations with fungal hosts are widespread, and represents a vast increase in the representation of explored fungal-bacterial relationships.
