Thailand Soil Conditions & Pathogenic Risk Indicators

Overview

This website presents a research-driven analysis of agricultural soils in Northeastern Thailand, focused on identifying environmental conditions associated with the absence of fungal taxa listed in the World Health Organization (WHO) Fungal Priority Pathogen List (FPPL). Using soil metabarcoding data and machine-learning-based models, the study derives absence conditions, defined as combinations of environmental parameters under which specific FPPL taxa were not detected in sampled soils.

The purpose of this resource is interpretive rather than predictive. It summarizes what the data support, clarifies the limits of inference, and illustrates how absence-based environmental patterns may inform environmental monitoring or screening efforts, without implying causality, exposure pathways, or clinical risk. Findings are specific to Northeastern Thailand and are not intended to be generalized to other regions without additional validation.
