Abstrakt: Bacteroides spp. are increasingly used as model gut commensals in cocolonization studies with enteropathogens. The collective findings imply common themes of colonization resistance but also pathogen crossfeeding. We discuss how cutting-edge transcriptomics may help to disentangle the molecular basis of the divergent roles of Bacteroides in either protecting against or promoting infection.
