Heritability jointly explained by host genotype and microbiome: will improve traits prediction?

Abstract excerpt

As we observe the $70$th anniversary of the publication by Robertson that formalized the notion of 'heritability', geneticists remain puzzled by the problem of missing/hidden heritability, where heritability estimates from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) fall short of that from twin-based studies. Many possible explanations have been offered for this discrepancy, including existence of genetic variants...
