PIGMENT PRODUCTION IN BACTEROIDES [PDF]
Summary Chromogenesis by three members of the genus Bacteroides was studied. The species investigated were: Bacteroides melaninogenicus, B. fragilis and B. necrophorus. All were capable of pigment production, but each species required a different set of factors for chromogenesis. All needed cysteine and ferrous sulphate.

Hadza Prevotella require diet-derived microbiota-accessible carbohydrates to persist in mice
Summary: Industrialization has transformed the gut microbiota, reducing the prevalence of Prevotella relative to Bacteroides. Here, we isolate Bacteroides and Prevotella strains from the microbiota of Hadza hunter-gatherers in Tanzania, a population with

A Phase-Variable Surface Layer from the Gut Symbiont
The capsule from Bacteroides, a common gut symbiont, has long been a model system for studying the molecular mechanisms of host-symbiont interactions. The Bacteroides capsule is thought to consist of an array of phase-variable polysaccharides that give ...
