Uncovering complex microbiome activities via metatranscriptomics during 24 hours of oral biofilm assembly and maturation
1 Dec 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Dental plaque is composed of hundreds of bacterial taxonomic units and represents one of the most diverse and stable microbial ecosystems associated with the human body. Taxonomic composition and functional capacity of mature plaque is gradually shaped during several stages of community assembly via processes such as co-aggregation, competition for space and resources, and by bacterially produced...
