Human gut metagenomes and assembled microbial genomes from an urban cohort from Colombia, South America

The paper reports shotgun gut metagenomes and assembled microbial genomes from an urban Colombian cohort, complementing existing 16S rRNA gene and host data.

Incorporating genome-based phylogeny and functional similarity into diversity assessments helps to resolve a global collection of human gut metagenomes

The paper evaluates tree-based and tree-agnostic diversity measures in human gut metagenomes, finding tree-based measures better explain phenotypic variation and improve predictive models.
