Growth phase estimation for abundant bacterial populations sampled longitudinally from human stool metagenomes

Abstract Longitudinal sampling of the stool has yielded important insights into the ecological dynamics of the human gut microbiome. However, human stool samples are available approximately once per day, while commensal population doubling times are likely on the order of minutes-to-hours. Despite t...
