Spatial Variation in the Healthy Human Lung Microbiome and the Adapted Island Model of Lung Biogeography

24 Mar 2015

Abstract excerpt

RATIONALE: The lung microbiome is spatially heterogeneous in advanced airway diseases, but whether it varies spatially in health is unknown. We postulated that the primary determinant of lung microbiome constitution in health is the balance of immigration and elimination of communities from the upper respiratory tract (URT; "adapted island model of lung biogeography"), rather than differences in regional...
