show Abstracthide AbstractThe microbiota of the human nasal passages includes both candidate beneficial microbes and pathobionts of importance in medicine and public health. Our long-term goal is to generate a collection of genome sequences for multiple species of human-nasal associated microbes focused on strains isolated from the human nasal passages. The emphasis is on sharing sets of genomes for currently understudied microbionts that have both high prevalence and, often, high relative abundance in human nasal microbiota along the span of human life. This collection serves as a resource for research on the structure and function of the human nasal microbiome using pangenomics, comparative genomics, metagenomics and in silico modeling among other approaches. (Please note that genome sequences for Dolosigranulum pigrum are deposited in earlier BioProjects PRJNA379818 and PRJNA379966.)
