The human oral microbiome is shaped by shared environment rather than genetics: evidence from a large family of closely-related individuals

2017-04-26

Abstract excerpt

The human microbiome is affected by multiple factors, including the environment and host genetics. In this study, we analyzed the oral microbiome of an extended family of Ashkenazi Jewish individuals living in several cities and investigated associations with both shared household and host genetic similarities. We found that environmental effects dominated over genetic ones. While there was weak evidence of geogra...
