Abstract Within host-microbiome-pathogen systems, the host chemical microenvironment is often overlooked despite its inherent role in host physiology. We used a multifaceted experimental approach encompassing culture-dependent and -independent methods, genomic and metagenomic analyses, and deep neural network modeling to assess the impact of host skin chemistry and the bacterial microbiome on the growth of Ophidiomyces ophidiicola (ophidiomycosis, snake fungal disease).
