Genetic variation in the TAS2R38 taste receptor contributes to the oral microbiota in North and South European locations: a pilot study
Abstract Background Microbial communities are influenced by environmental factors including host genetics. We investigated the relationship between host bitter taste receptor genotype hTAS2R38 and oral microbiota, together with the influence of geographical location. Methods hTAS2R38 polymorphisms a...
