Strain-Level Analysis of <italic toggle="yes">Bifidobacterium</italic> spp. from Gut Microbiomes of Adults with Differing Lactase Persistence Genotypes
ABSTRACT One of the strongest associations between human genetics and the gut microbiome is a greater relative abundance of Bifidobacterium in adults with lactase gene (LCT) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with lactase nonpersistence (GG genotypes), versus lactase persistence (AA/A...
