Exploring the Ecology of Bifidobacteria and Their Genetic Adaptation to the Mammalian Gut
Microorganisms, 2020 The mammalian gut is densely inhabited by microorganisms that have coevolved with their host. Amongst these latter microorganisms, bifidobacteria represent a key model to study host–microbe interaction within the mammalian gut. Remarkably, bifidobacteria
