Archive description
The BioProject aims to unravel the complexities of the gut microbiome in an indigenous tribal</p><p>community residing in Pangi, a village in the Chamba district of Himachal Pradesh, India. Fecal</p><p>samples were collect from healthy volunteers after prior consent and whole metagenome shotgun</p><p>sequencing was performed utilizing the Illumina NovaSeq platform. The main target was to</p><p>analyze the gut microbiome of this tribal community at a fundamental level, aiming to elucidate</p><p>the composition and functionality of their gut microbiota, with potential implications for human</p><p>health and disease. The data generated was used for shedding light on the unexplored microbial</p><p>landscape and function of gut microbiome, and thereby reshape our understanding of the gut</p><p>microbiome and its implications for health and disease.
