Modes of interspecies interactions as modeled before. Pairwise interactions only account for two species to share metabolites. Multispecies models allow sharing of metabolites between more than two species. Microbiota-host interaction models lump all the microbial species into one meta-model and model the interaction with the host. Microbe-microbe and microbiota-host interactions are multilevel models that take into account microbial interactions and interactions with the host
