    • Continued isolation of anaerobic gut fungi from marsupial hosts 

      Chandler, Emily E.; Pratt, Carrie J.; Youssef, Noha H. (Oklahoma State University, 2023-04-18)
      Anaerobic gut fungi (AGF) are commonly found in the digestive tracts of herbivores, where they play a crucial role in breaking down complex plant materials, such as cellulose and lignin, by adhering to plant biomass and ...

    • Culturing novel anaerobic gut fungi from marsupials 

      Chandler, Emily E.; Pratt, Carrie J.; Youssef, Noha H. (Oklahoma State University, 2022-04-19)
      Anaerobic gut fungi (AGF) from the phylum Neocallimastigomycota are an essential part of the microbiome in herbivores. These fungi aid in digestion in ruminants, pseudoruminants, and nonruminants alike, where they adhere ...

    • Discovery and characterization of novel fungal diversity in the equine alimentary tract 

      Arreola, Alex X.; Meili, Casey H.; Youssef, Noha H. (Oklahoma State University, 2021-10-09)
      Fungi provide crucial ecosystem services in multiple ecosystems. Most fungi thrive as free-living organisms, but many forge symbiotic, predatory, pathogenic, and commensal relationships with algae, plants, and animals. One ...

    • Discovery and characterization of novel fungal diversity in the equine alimentary tract 

      Arreola, Alex X.; Meili, Casey H.; Youssef, Noha H. (Oklahoma State University, 2022-04-15)
      Most fungi thrive as free-living organisms, but few can forge symbiotic relationships with their hosts. One of the most enigmatic fungal groups are the anaerobic fungi (AF, phylum Neocallimastigomycota). They reside in the ...
