Gut microbiome diversity within Clostridia is negatively associated with human obesity
16 Jul 2024
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Clostridia are abundant in the human gut and comprise families associated with host health such as Oscillospiraceae, which has been correlated with leanness. However, culturing bacteria within this family is challenging, leading to their detection primarily through 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, which has a limited ability to unravel diversity at low taxonomic levels, or by shotgun metagenomics, which is...
