The virome is one of the most variable components of the human gut microbiome. Within
twin pairs, viromes have been shown to be similar for infants, but not for adults, indicating …

The early years of life are important for immune development and influence health in
adulthood. Although it has been established that the gut bacterial microbiome is rapidly …

The human gut virome and its early life development are poorly understood. Prior studies
have captured single-point assessments with the evolution of the infant virome remaining …

Immense populations of viruses are present in the human gut and other body sites.
Understanding the role of these populations (the human “virome”) in health and disease …

Here, we outline our current understanding of the human gut virome, in particular the phage
component of this ecosystem, highlighting progress, and challenges in viral discovery in this …

The human gut virome, which is often referred to as the" dark matter" of the gut microbiome,
remains understudied. A better understanding of the composition and variations of the gut …

Indigenous bacteriophage communities (virome) in the human gut have a huge impact on
the structure and function of gut bacterial communities (bacteriome), but virome variation at a …

The human gut contains a vast array of viruses, mostly bacteriophages. The majority remain
uncharacterized, and their roles in shaping the gut microbiome and in impacting on human …

The gut microbiome profoundly affects human health and disease, and their infecting viruses
are likely as important, but often missed because of reference database limitations. Here, we …

Background & Aims The gut virome includes eukaryotic viruses and bacteriophages that can
shape the gut bacterial community and elicit host responses. The virome can be implicated …
