Isolation of novel gut bifidobacteria using a combination of metagenomic and cultivation approaches

Abstract Whole metagenome shotgun (WMGS) sequencing is a method that provides insights into the genomic composition and arrangement of complex microbial consortia. Here, we report how WMGS coupled with a cultivation approach allows the isolation of novel bifidobacteria from animal fecal samples. A c...
