Intestinal fungi are causally implicated in microbiome assembly and immune development in mice

The immunomodulatory role of commensal gut fungi and interactions with bacteria remain unclear. Here, using germ-free mice colonized with defined species of bacteria and fungi, the authors find that fungal colonization induces changes in bacterial microbiome ecology while having an independent effec...
