Abstract
cooccurred and were quantitatively associated with each other. Additionally, we found that the gut microbial composition is strongly associated with the host's age. The microbiome data presented here represent the gut microbiome of a healthy Korean population and could be used to unveil gut microbiome-associated host conditions in this population.
