Environmental ITS2 sequencing in houses of patients with eumycetoma in two Sudanese endemic villages

In this study, a metagenomics approach was used to determine the habitat of M. mycetomatis and other eumycetoma causative agents within the household environment of some patients with confirmed eumycetoma. It was conducted in two mycetoma endemic villages at the White Nile State.

本研究采用宏基因组学（metagenomics）方法，针对部分确诊真菌性足菌肿（eumycetoma）患者的家庭环境，探明马杜拉分枝菌（M. mycetomatis）及其他真菌性足菌肿致病原的栖息生境。本研究在白尼罗河州的两个足菌肿流行村落开展。
