Inventors include Mrs. Neha Santosh Mehta; Dr. Kirti Jayant Mhatre; Ms. Aparna Ashok Dhumal; and Mr. Ravindra Dhondu Morbekar.
The application for the patent was published on October 02, 2026, under issue no. 40/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a Fungi Comparative Genomics Database (FCGS) developed for the identification and characterization of fungal pathogens. The database integrates and organizes fungal genomic information, including genome sequences, gene annotations, conserved genes, species-specific markers, and pathogen-associated genetic features. The system enables comparative analysis of genomic data among different fungal species and strains to identify similarities, differences, and diagnostic genetic markers. The FCGS further facilitates fungal species identification, phylogenetic analysis, and comparative genomic profiling through a computer-implemented platform. The invention provides an integrated and efficient resource for rapid fungal pathogen identification, genomic research, pathogen characterization, and surveillance.
