Hindguts of Kyphosus sydneyanus harbor phylogenetically and genomically distinct Alistipes capable of degrading algal polysaccharides and diazotrophy by Cesar T. Facimoto, Kendall D. Clements, W. Lindsey White, Kim M. Handley

“…Results highlight host-specific adaptations among Alistipes in the fish hindgut that likely contribute to K. sydneyanus digesting their seaweed diet, and diverse and redundant carbohydrate-degrading capabilities across these Alistipes species.IMPORTANCEDespite numerous reports of the Alistipes genus in humans and ruminants, its diversity and function remain understudied, and there is no clear consensus on whether it positively or negatively impacts host health. Given the symbiotic role of gut communities in the Kyphosus sydneyanus hindgut, where Alistipes are prevalent, and the diversity of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) encoded that likely contribute to the breakdown of important substrates in the host diet, it is likely that this genus provides essential services to the fish host. …”
