crAssphage abundance and genomic selective pressure correlate with altered bacterial abundance in the fecal microbiota of South African mother-infant dyads

2019-03-19

Abstract excerpt

crAssphages are a class of bacteriophages that are highly abundant in the human gastrointestinal tract. Accordingly, crAssphage genomes have been identified in most human fecal viral metagenome studies. However, we currently have an incomplete understanding of factors impacting the transmission frequencies of these phages between mothers and infants, and the evolutionary pressures associated with such transmission...
