• Analysing microbiome intervention design studies: Comparison of alternative multivariate statistical methods 

      Khomich, Maryia; Måge, Ingrid; Rud, Ida; Berget, Ingunn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      The diet plays a major role in shaping gut microbiome composition and function in both humans and animals, and dietary intervention trials are often used to investigate and understand these effects. A plethora of statistical ...
    • Association between lipid-A-producing oral bacteria of different potency and fractional exhaled nitric oxide in a Norwegian population-based adult cohort 

      Khomich, Maryia; Lin, Huang; Malinovschi, Andrei; Brix, Susanne; Cestelli, Lucia; Peddada, Shyamal; Johannessen, Ane; Eriksen, Carsten; Gomez Real, Francisco; Svanes, Cecilie; Bertelsen, Randi Jacobsen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Background Lipid A is the primary immunostimulatory part of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) molecule. The inflammatory response of LPS varies and depends upon the number of acyl chains and phosphate groups in lipid A which ...
    • Current knowledge of Chytridiomycota diversity in Northern Europe and future research needs 

      Blaalid, Rakel; Khomich, Maryia (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Chytridiomycota is the most species-rich phylum of basal lineage fungi involved in vital processes in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Still, the diversity and richness of this group remains cryptic. In Northern ...
    • The curse of the uncultured fungus 

      Abarenkov, Kessy; Kristiansson, Erik; Ryberg, Martin; Nogal-Prata, Sandra; Gómez-Martínez, Daniela; Stüer-Patowsky, Katrin; Jansson, Tobias; Põlme, Sergei; Ghobad-Nejhad, Masoomeh; Corcoll, Natàlia; Scharn, Ruud; Sánchez-García, Marisol; Khomich, Maryia; Wurzbacher, Christian; Nilsson, R. Henrik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      The international DNA sequence databases abound in fungal sequences not annotated beyond the kingdom level, typically bearing names such as “uncultured fungus”. These sequences beget low-resolution mycological results and ...
    • How, not if, is the question mycologists should be asking about DNA-based typification 

      Nilsson, R. Henrik; Ryberg, Martin; Wurzbacher, Christian; Tedersoo, Leho; Anslan, Sten; Põlme, Sergei; Spirin, Viacheslav; Mikryukov, Vladimir; Svantesson, Sten; Hartmann, Martin; Lennartsdotter, Charlotte; Belford, Pauline; Khomich, Maryia; Retter, Alice; Corcoll, Natàlia; Martinez, Daniela Gómez; Jansson, Tobias; Ghobad-Nejhad, Masoomeh; Vu, Duong; Sanchez-Garcia, Marisol; Kristiansson, Erik; Abarenkov, Kessy (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Fungal metabarcoding of substrates such as soil, wood, and water is uncovering an unprecedented number of fungal species that do not seem to produce tangible morphological structures and that defy our best attempts at ...
