An evolution-based framework for describing human gut bacteria

2023-12-05

Abstract excerpt

The human gut microbiome contains many bacterial strains of the same species (‘strain-level variants’). Describing strains in a biologically meaningful way rather than purely taxonomically is an important goal but challenging due to the genetic complexity of strain-level variation. Here, we measured patterns of co-evolution across >7,000 strains spanning the bacterial tree-of-life. Using these patterns as a prior...
