Gut metagenomes of rural populations in Cameroon
In order to examine how the subsistence mode affects the human gut microbiome, we analyzed faecal metagenomes of 58 healthy adults from Cameroon (hunter-gatherers, farmers and fishers).Our aim is to describe taxonomical and functional diversity, as well as to unveil the interactions between the eukaryotic and prokaryotic componenet of the gut microbiome.
