The gut microbiome plays a key role in human health. This community is dynamic during the first three years of life, before stabilizing to an adult-like state. However, relatively little is known about the impact of environmental factors on the developing human gut microbiome. Here we report a longitudinal study of the gut microbiome based on DNA sequence analysis of monthly stool samples and clinical information from 39 children, approximately half of whom received multiple courses of antibiotics during the first three years of life. While the gut microbiome of most vaginally born children was dominated by Bacteroides species, we found that all four children born by Cesarean section and approximately 20% of vaginally born children lacked Bacteroides in the first six to eighteen months. Our longitudinal sampling, coupled with whole-genome shotgun sequencing, allowed us to detect strain-level variation as well as the abundance of antibiotic resistance (AR) genes. The microbiota of antibiotic-treated children was less diverse at the level of both species and strains, with some species often dominated by single strains. In addition, we observed short-term composition changes between consecutive samples from children treated with antibiotics. AR genes carried on microbial chromosomes showed a strong peak in abundance after antibiotic treatment followed by a sharp decline, whereas some genes on mobile elements persisted longer after the end of antibiotic therapy. Our results highlight the value of dense longitudinal studies with high-resolution strain profiles in studying the establishment and response to perturbation of the infant gut microbiome.
