Basidiomycota
Fungi · Phylum · observed in 4 condition signatures · best evidence grade Very-Low.
Detection note. Fungi are invisible to 16S rRNA sequencing (a bacterial/archaeal marker gene). This taxon is only observed where a fungal-aware method (ITS/18S/shotgun) was used, so its absence from a 16S-only condition means it was not measured — not that it is absent.

Evidence grade reflects reproducibility and methodology across our corpus, not the strength of any single study. A landmark single study can be strong on its own while this aggregate grade stays low until the finding is replicated.
