Do genetics alone explain the microbiome’s missing heritability?

In this video, Gavin Douglas, a PhD Candidate in the Langille Lab in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at Dalhousie University, and the author of the paper called “Re-evaluating the relationship between missing heritability and the microbiome”, explains.

According to Gavin, there’s NO clear mechanism for higher transmission rates from a mother to identical twins compared to fraternal twins. ❌

Instead, he suggests a gene by environment interaction as a more likely explanation for this missing link. ❗

Discover why environmental factors should also be considered an extension of the human genome in unraveling the mysteries of the microbiome.
