Genomic co-localization of variation affecting agronomic and human gut microbiome traits in a meta-analysis of diverse sorghum.

Abstract excerpt

Substantial functional metabolic diversity exists within species of cultivated grain crops that directly or indirectly provide more than half of all calories consumed by humans around the globe. While such diversity is the molecular currency used for improving agronomic traits, diversity is poorly characterized for its effects on human nutrition and utilization by gut microbes. Moreover, we know little about...
