Beyond sequencing: how culturomics complements 16S rRNA profiling of the urogenital microbiome of reproductive-age asymptomatic women
2026-06-19
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p> Culturomics and 16S rRNA gene sequencing offer complementary views of the genitourinary microbiome (GUM) but are rarely compared in well-phenotyped cohorts. Here, we characterized the GUM of 100 prospectively enrolled asymptomatic, non-pregnant, reproductive-age women (18–45 years). Community structure types (CSTs) were defined by hierarchical clustering of genus-level relative abunda...
