Metagenomic analysis of the gut microbiome and resistome is instrumental for understanding the dynamics of diarrheal pathogenesis and antimicrobial resistance transmission (AMR). The pilot study was conducted to determine a microbiota signature and the source of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in the diarrheal gut.
Gut Pathogens launched in 2009 and its growth has followed the fast-paced developments of the field in the last ten years, from probiotics to bacterial genomics, to the rise of microbiome research. Dr. Niyaz Ahmed, Editor-in-Chief, tells us more about the success stories.
We also look back on just some of the high quality work published by Gut Pathogens as we look forward to the next ten years

Gut Pathogens publishes research on both biological and clinical aspects of the pathogens, commensals and functional microbiota of the gut, including probiotic bacteria and yeasts and their products. The journal also considers timely reports on the novel aspects of genomics, metagenomics, microbiota profiling and systems biology, as well as studies identifying new genome sequences of gut microbes.
