Gut microbiome mediates host genomic effects on phenotypes: a case study with fat deposition in pigs
A large number of studies have highlighted the importance of gut microbiome composition in shaping fat deposition in mammals. Several studies have also highlighted how host genome controls the abundance of certain species that make up the gut microbiota. We propose a systematic approach to infer how...
