The Genome Sequence of Bifidobacterium longum subsp. Infantis Reveals Adaptations for Milk Utilization within the Infant Microbiome

Following birth, the breast-fed infant gastrointestinal tract is rapidly colonized by a microbial consortium often dominated by bifidobacteria. Accordingly, the complete genome sequence of Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis ATCC15697 reflects a competitive nutrient-utilization strategy targeting...
