The genus is commonly found in the microbiome of the human digestive tract, as shown by the Human Microbiome Project in general[5][6][7] and specifically for the salivary microbiome.[8] However, an overabundance of this genus has been reported from the feces of patiens diagnosed with colorectal cancer.[9]
