Abstract

Human gut contains plethora of microbes providing a platform for functional and metabolic interaction between host and microbiota. The human gastro-intestinal tract is known to have trillions of bacterial cells, more than the human cells by approximately a factor of 10 [1]. A major fraction of microbes (
