Table 2.
Yeast species isolated and identified by sequencing of the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region. For each yeast species, the number of isolates and the number of subjects from which the corresponding yeast species was isolated are reported. For each donor group, the total number of isolated strains for each species, as well as the overall number of isolates, are indicated. CD= Crohn’s Disease patients, UC=Ulcerative Colitis patients, HC= Healthy Children.
