Genetic mutation in Escherichia coli genome during adaptation to the murine intestine is optimized for the host diet

ABSTRACTMammalian gut microbes colonize the intestinal tract of their host and adapt to establish a microbial ecosystem. The host diet changes the nutrient profile of the intestine and has a high impact on microbiota composition. Genetic mutations in Escherichia coli, a prevalent species in the huma...
