Host genetic variation in mucosal immunity pathways influences the upper airway microbiome
2016-07-05
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The degree to which host genetic variation can modulate microbial communities in humans remains an open question. Here we performed a genetic mapping study of the microbiome in two accessible upper airway sites, the nasopharynx and the nasal vestibule, during two seasons in 144 adult members of a founder population of European decent. We estimated the relative abundances (RAs) of genus level bac...
