The core human microbiome (red) is the set of genes present in a given habitat in
all or the vast majority of humans. Habitat can be defined over a range of scales,
from the entire body to a specific surface area, such as the gut or a region within
the gut. The variable human microbiome (blue) is the set of genes present in a
given habitat in a smaller subset of humans. This variation could result from a
combination of factors such as host genotype, host physiological status (including
the properties of the innate and adaptive immune systems), host pathobiology
(disease status), host lifestyle (including diet), host environment (at home and/or
work) and the presence of transient populations of microorganisms that cannot
persistently colonize a habitat. The gradation in colour of the core indicates the
possibility that, during human micro-evolution, new genes might be included in
the core microbiome, whereas other genes might be excluded.

time.
