The fungal taxonomic composition and abundance differences between the WT-TC and DB-TC groups based on ITS sequencing. The taxonomic composition of the fungal community at the phylum, class, order, family, and genus levels is presented. Ascomycota, Sordariomycetes, Sordariales, Bolbitiaceae, and Agrocybe were the dominant taxa found in the samples. At the species level, the most high-frequency OTU1 was identified as Agrocybe pediades, Serendipita indica, Humicola grisea, and Rhizopus arrhizus. The abundance of Eurotiomycetes, Eurotiales, Mucoraceae, and Mucor was significantly reduced in the diabetic group compared to the control group (p < 0.05)
