The Evolution of Host Specialization in the Vertebrate Gut Symbiont Lactobacillus reuteri

17 Feb 2011

Abstract excerpt

Recent research has provided mechanistic insight into the important contributions of the gut microbiota to vertebrate biology, but questions remain about the evolutionary processes that have shaped this symbiosis. In the present study, we showed in experiments with gnotobiotic mice that the evolution of Lactobacillus reuteri with rodents resulted in the emergence of host specialization. To identify genomic events...
