Host genetics and the gut microbiome can both influence metabolic phenotypes. However,
whether host genetic variation shapes the gut microbiome and interacts with it to affect host …

… Specifically, the stomach microbiome of R. roxellana was more similar to that of the cattle …

… linkage disequilibrium (r 2 ) between each dot and the top SNP, colored purple and indicated
by its dbSNP rsID (inset legend indicates the spectrum of colors and matching r 2 values). …

The gut microbiome has been implicated in multiple human chronic gastrointestinal (GI)
disorders. Determining its mechanistic role in disease has been difficult due to apparent …

We present a global atlas of 4,728 metagenomic samples from mass-transit systems in 60
cities over 3 years, representing the first systematic, worldwide catalog of the urban microbial …

Individuals from different populations vary considerably in their susceptibility to immune-related
diseases. To understand how genetic variation and natural selection contribute to these …

Relatives have more similar gut microbiomes than nonrelatives, but the degree to which this
similarity results from shared genotypes versus shared environments has been controversial…

The human microbiome has been linked to various host phenotypes and has been
implicated in many complex human diseases. Recent genome-wide association studies (GWASs) …

10.7554/eLife.05224.001 Social relationships have profound effects on health in humans and
other primates, but the mechanisms that explain this relationship are not well understood. …

Shotgun metagenomics and marker gene amplicon sequencing can be used to directly
measure or predict the functional repertoire of the microbiota en masse, but current methods do …
