Deskripsi
Microbiome composition is influenced by genetics, although the specific host genetic factors responsible are not well known. Here, the authors performed a genome-wide meta-analysis to discover host genetic effects on skin microbiota and finding potential causal effects of microbiota composition on skin diseases.
