<p>Ichthyosis introduces multiple sources of disturbance to the skin, including the direct biochemical consequences of the genotype, the phenotypic changes in skin physiology, and an altered skin microbiome. The association between changes in the skin microbiome and the disease's genotypic and phenotypic effects are historically obscured. Here we characterize the skin microbiome of healthy participants and ichthyosis patients, before assessing the association between these microbiome features and the ichthyosis genotype and phenotype while adjusting for contextual host covariables. </p>
