Background The human gut microbiota is a complex community comprised of trillions of
bacteria and is critical for the digestion and absorption of nutrients. Bacterial communities of …

The mammalian gut harbors complex and variable microbial communities, across both host
phylogenetic space and conspecific individuals. A synergy of host genetic and …

The gut microbiota is a complex ecosystem, affected by both environmental factors and host
genetics. Here, we aim at uncovering the bacterial taxa whose gut persistence is controlled …

The gut microbiota can affect host health, including humans. Mouse models have been used
extensively to study the relationships between the host and the gut microbiota. With the …

Background Murine models are a crucial component of gut microbiome research.
Unfortunately, a multitude of genetic backgrounds and experimental setups, together with …

In vertebrates, including humans, individuals harbor gut microbial communities whose
species composition and relative proportions of dominant microbial groups are …

The intestinal microbiome has emerged as an important component involved in various
diseases. Therefore, the interest in understanding the factors shaping its composition is …

Identifying a scalable, unbiased method for discovering which members of the human gut
microbiota influence specific physiologic, metabolic, and immunologic phenotypes remains …

The gastrointestinal tract harbors a complex and diverse microbiota that has an important
role in host metabolism. Microbial diversity is influenced by a combination of environmental …

Human health and disease have increasingly been shown to be impacted by the gut
microbiota, and mouse models are essential for investigating these effects. However, the …
