Complex adaptive architectures constrain the pace of adaptations sweeping across human gut microbiomes
2026-06-03
Abstract excerpt
Recent work has shown that commensal gut bacteria can evolve rapidly within hosts on short timescales of days to months, fueled by the enormous mutational input generated daily in the microbiome. Yet how rapidly adaptations spread across gut microbiomes of different hosts remains unclear. We address this question by estimating the number of independent origins of gene-specific sweeps spreading via recombination ac...
