The community of people living around you could influence the community of microbes living inside of you.

By comparison, human to human transmission is hasn't been so extensively studied. The results of the current review suggest that is an oversight.

What's more, this seeded community of microorganisms could still be detected late into adulthood, albeit at lower percentages. At 30 years of age, for instance, the average person in the study had kept about 14 percent of their mother's original bacterial strains. Even at 85 years of age, a mother's most highly transmissible strains were still present in her offspring.

After age four, for instance, researchers found a child shares equal percentages of bacterial strains from both the mother and their father. What's more, the longer identical twins lived apart, the fewer microbial strains they shared in their gut. In about 67 percent of the communities studied, individuals within the same village but from different households shared more bacterial strains than they did with households in other villages.

Global patterns of diversity and metabolism of microbial communities in deep-sea hydrothermal vent deposits - MicrobiomeGlobal patterns of diversity and metabolism of microbial communities in deep-sea hydrothermal vent deposits - MicrobiomeBackground When deep-sea hydrothermal fluids mix with cold oxygenated fluids, minerals precipitate out of solution and form hydrothermal deposits. These actively venting deep-sea hydrothermal deposits support a rich diversity of thermophilic microorganisms which are involved in a range of carbon, sulfur, nitrogen, and hydrogen metabolisms. Global patterns of thermophilic microbial diversity in deep-sea hydrothermal ecosystems have illustrated the strong connectivity between geological processes and microbial colonization, but little is known about the genomic diversity and physiological potential of these novel taxa. Here we explore this genomic diversity in 42 metagenomes from four deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields and a deep-sea volcano collected from 2004 to 2018 and document their potential implications in biogeochemical cycles. Results Our dataset represents 3635 metagenome-assembled genomes encompassing 511 novel and recently identified genera from deep-sea hydrothermal settings. Some of the novel bacterial (107) and archaeal genera (30) that were recently reported from the deep-sea Brothers volcano were also detected at the deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields, while 99 bacterial and 54 archaeal genera were endemic to the deep-sea Brothers volcano deposits. We report some of the first examples of medium- (≥ 50% complete, ≤ 10% contaminated) to high-quality (| 90% complete, | 5% contaminated) MAGs from phyla and families never previously identified, or poorly sampled, from deep-sea hydrothermal environments. We greatly expand the novel diversity of Thermoproteia, Patescibacteria (Candidate Phyla Radiation, CPR), and Chloroflexota found at deep-sea hydrothermal vents and identify a small sampling of two potentially novel phyla, designated JALSQH01 and JALWCF01. Metabolic pathway analysis of metagenomes provides insights into the prevalent carbon, nitrogen, sulfur, and hydrogen metabolic processes across all sites and illustrates sulfur and nitrogen metabolic “hand
