Bifidobacteria: insights into the biology of a key microbial group of early life gut microbiota

Abstract excerpt

The establishment and development of the human gut microbiota constitutes a dynamic and non-random process, which involves positive and negative interactions between key microbial taxa and their host. Remarkably, these early life microbiota-host communications include key events with long-term health consequences.
