High-resolution lineage tracking of within-host evolution and strain transmission in a human gut symbiont across ecological scales

2024-02-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Gut bacteria rapidly evolve in vivo , but their long-term success requires dispersal across hosts. Here, we quantify this interplay by tracking >50,000 genomically barcoded lineages of the prevalent commensal Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron ( Bt ) among co-housed mice. We find that adaptive mutations rapidly spread between hosts, overcoming the natural colonization resistance of resident Bt stra...
