Variation in rural African gut microbiota is strongly correlated with colonization by <i>Entamoeba</i> and subsistence

2015-03-24

Abstract excerpt

The human gut microbiota is impacted by host nutrition and health status and therefore represents a potentially adaptive phenotype influenced by metabolic and immune constraints. Previous studies contrasting rural populations in developing countries to urban industrialized ones have shown that industrialization is strongly correlated with patterns in human gut microbiota; however, we know little about the relative...
