A large variety of microbes are present in the human gut, some of which are considered to interact with each other. Most of these interactions involve bacterial metabolites. Phascolarctobacterium faecium hardly uses carbohydrates for growth and instead uses succinate as a substrate. This study investigated the growth behavior of the co-culture of the succinate-specific utilizer P. faecium and the succinogenic gut commensal Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron. Succinate production by B. thetaiotaomicron supported the growth of P. faecium and
