Species richness determines <i>C. difficile</i> invasion outcome in synthetic human gut communities
2021-03-23
Abstract excerpt
Understanding the principles of colonization resistance of the gut microbiome to the pathogen Clostridioides difficile will enable the design of next generation defined bacterial therapeutics. We investigate the ecological principles of community resistance to C. difficile invasion using a diverse synthetic human gut microbiome. Our results show that species richness is a key determinant of C. difficile growth...
