Project description:The goal was to assess the impact of carbon source and cross-feeding on transcription profile of both bacteria. R. gnavus was grown in monoculture with glucose (Glc). R. bromii was grown in monoculture with soluble (SS) or resistant (RS) starch. R. bromii and R. gnavus were co-cultured with SS or RS. Total RNA was extracted from a culture sample taken at mid- to late exponential phase of growth. rRNA was depleted and mRNA sequenced. 3 biological replicates were prepared for each condition.
