摘要: Prevotella copri is a common human gut microbe that has been both positively and negatively associated with host health. In a cross-continent meta-analysis exploiting> 6,500 metagenomes, we obtained> 1,000 genomes and explored the genetic and population structure of P. copri. P. copri encompasses four distinct clades (> 10% inter-clade genetic divergence) that we propose constitute the P. copri complex, and all clades were confirmed by isolate sequencing. These clades are nearly ubiquitous and co-present in non …
