Eukaryotic metagenome-assembled genomes recovered from deep metagenomic sequencing of the seagrass, Zostera marina, include a novel chytrid in the order Lobulomycetales
Abstract Fungi play pivotal roles in terrestrial ecosystems as decomposers, pathogens and endophytes, yet their significance in marine environments is often understudied. Seagrasses, as globally distributed marine flowering plants, have critical ecological functions but knowledge about their associated fungal communiti...
