Ecological Stability Emerges at the Level of Strains in the Human Gut Microbiome

2021-10-01

Abstract excerpt

The human gut microbiome harbors substantial ecological diversity at the species level, as well as at the strain level within species. In healthy hosts, species abundance fluctuations in the microbiome are thought to be stable, and these fluctuations can be described by macroecological laws. However, it is less clear how strain abundances change over time. An open question is whether individual strains behave like...
