Abstract
Recent years have seen an explosion in the number of complete or almost complete genomic sequences of lactic acid bacteria and other food-grade bacteria that are used in functional foods to increase the health of the consumer. These have been instrumental in the development of functional, comparative and other post-genomics approaches that provide the possibility to detect, unravel and understand their functionality in the human intestinal tract. In conjunction with other high-throughput approaches, these advances can be exploited in the functional food innovation cycle for developing new or designed probiotic and other bacterial products that impact gut health.Entities:
