The molecular revolution in fungal diagnostics: bridging gaps across clinical, agricultural, and environmental mycology
3 Dec 2025
Abstract excerpt
Fungi play essential roles in human health, agriculture, and ecosystems, yet their diversity has long been underestimated due to reliance on morphology and culture. Molecular innovations-DNA barcoding, multilocus and whole-genome sequencing, NGS, and rapid nucleic acid diagnostics (qPCR, LAMP, CRISPR/Cas)-have revolutionized fungal taxonomy and detection. The ITS region now serves as a universal barcode, often...
