Bifidobacteria exhibit social behavior through carbohydrate resource sharing in the gut [PDF]
Bifidobacteria are common and frequently dominant members of the gut microbiota of many animals, including mammals and insects. Carbohydrates are considered key carbon sources for the gut microbiota, imposing strong selective pressure on the complex ...
