Host genetic variation in mucosal immunity pathways influences the upper airway microbiome

BACKGROUND: The degree to which host genetic variation can modulate microbial communities in humans remains an open question. Here, we performed a genetic mapping study of the microbiome in two accessible upper airway sites, the nasopharynx and the nasal vestibule, during two seasons in 144 adult me...
