Abstract
The Earth Hologenome Initiative (EHI) is a global collaboration to generate and analyse hologenomic data from wild animals and associated microorganisms using standardised methodologies underpinned by open and inclusive research principles. Initially focused on vertebrates, it aims to re-examine ecological and evolutionary questions by studying host–microbiota interactions from a systemic perspective.
Description
The EHI could not be conceived without the trust and economic support provided by the Danish National Research Foundation through the grant DNRF143, and the Carlsberg Foundation through the grant CF20-0460. The authors also acknowledge the NERC (grant NE/M018660/1), and University of Exeter Europe Network Fund for the economic support provided to ongoing projects embedded within the EHI. M. Denoël is a Research Director at F.R.S.-FNRS (Fonds de la Recherche Scientifique). C. Rodríguez Fernandes thanks the support of cE3c through an assistant researcher contract (FCiência.ID contract #366) and FCT (Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia) for Portuguese National Funds attributed to cE3c within the projects UIDB/00329/2020, UIDP/00329/2020, and LA/P/0121/2020.
