Figure 1 FungiQuant in silico coverage analysis using the relaxed criterion against 993 genera and 9 phyla, demonstrating broad-coverage. On the 18S rRNA gene-based phylogeny, each analyzed fungal phylum is annotated with its genus-level FungiQuant coverage based on the relaxed criterion. This is presented as a numerator (i.e., the number of covered genus for the phylum), a denominator (i.e., the number of genera eligible for check details sequence matching for the phylum), and the percentage of coverage. FungiQuant sensitivity against diverse fungal DNA We tested the sensitivity of FungiQuant against 69 clinical and environmental species from
seven subphyla in the laboratory. We showed that FungiQuant is 100% sensitive against these diverse species from Agaricomycotina (n = 22), Mucormycotina (n = 4), Pezizomycotina (n = 29), Pucciniomycotina (n=2), Saccharomycotina (n = 17), Taphrinomycotina (n = 1), and VX-680 price Ustilaginomycotina (n = 1) (Table 3). All of the fungal species tested were perfect sequence matches to FungiQuant, and based on results from three ten-fold dilutions, we found that the assay reaction efficiencies
ranged from 76.29% to 114.45%., with r 2 -value of >0.99 (Table 3).
