The Evolution of Host Specialization in the Vertebrate Gut Symbiont Lactobacillus reuteri

Recent research has provided mechanistic insight into the important contributions of the gut microbiota to vertebrate biology, but questions remain about the evolutionary processes that have shaped this symbiosis. In the present study, we showed in experiments with gnotobiotic mice that the evolutio...
