  Description
Faecalibacteria is a genus of bacteria. Its sole known species, Faecalibacteria prausnitzii is gram-positive, mesophilic, rod-shaped, anaerobic and is one of the most abundant and important commensal bacteria of the human gut microbiota. These bacteria produce butyrate and other short-chain fatty acids through the fermentation of dietary fiber.
