Sharing of gut microbial strains between selected individual sets of twins cohabitating for decades.
BACKGROUND:Given the increasing realization of the important functions of the gut microbial community in human health, it is important to determine whether the increased age of the host coupled with inevitable environmental changes can alter the stability of individual microbial strains of the gut m...
