Minion Equine Grass Sickness Gastrointestinal Mycobiota

Minion sequencing and analysis of a gastrointestinal sample from a horse with equine grass sickness (EGS). EGS is a multiple systems neuropathy of grazing horses. To identify potential causal fungi of EGS the gastrointestinal mycobiota of an EGS horse was evaluated. Sequencing reads were polished and assembled, then compared to a custom kraken database for taxonomic assignment.
