Recombination and the Species Structure of the Genus <i>Bacteroides</i>

2025-05-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Bacteroides play prominent roles in maintaining gut homeostasis through the fermentation of dietary carbohydrates, the production of metabolites, and the regulation of host immune response. The genus Bacteroides comprises several dozen named species, several of which serve as a nexus of gene exchange in gut microbiomes, especially in humans. Because gene exchange will blur the historically defi...
