Characterization of gut microbiomes in rural Honduras reveals novel species and associations with human genetic variation

2025-03-26

Abstract excerpt

The gut microbiome is integral to human health, yet research data to date has emphasized industrialized populations. Here, we performed large-scale shotgun metagenomic sequencing on 1,889 individuals from rural Honduras, providing the most comprehensive microbiome dataset from Central America. We identify a distinct microbial composition enriched in Prevotella species, with 861 previously unreported bacterial spe...
