Unified Human Gut Virome (UHGV)

The UHGV is a comprehensive genomic resource of viruses from the human gut microbiome. Genomes were derived from 12 independent data sources and annotated using a uniform bioinformatics pipeline.

The files in this repository, which are described below, contain the most relevant data for most users. For the remaining data, please see: https://uhgv.jgi.doe.gov/downloads
