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

“…Therefore, considering its metabolism in various contexts and hosts is crucial for understanding the ecology of the genus. Our study highlights the distinct genetic traits of Alistipes based on host association, and the potential of fish-associated Alistipes to transform macroalgae biomass into nutraceuticals (alginate oligosaccharides, β-glucans, sulfated galactans, and sulfated fucans).…”
