Selection and transmission of the gut microbiome alone shifts mammalian behavior.
Strain tracking in complex microbiomes using synteny analysis reveals per-species modes of evolution.
Microbiome Science

How human is the human gut microbiome? The thousands of species that make up the human gut microbiome are environmentally acquired, yet their interactions with the host belie a close relationship built of reciprocal adaptations. From molecular mimicry of host cell surface structures, to host immune evasion and manipulation, the commensal microbiota of the gut […]
