Motivation The application of constraint-based modeling to functionally analyze metagenomic data has been limited so far, partially due to the absence of suitable toolboxes.Results To address this gap, we created a comprehensive toolbox to model (i) microbe-microbe and host-microbe metabolic interactions, and (ii) microbial communities using microbial genome-scale metabolic reconstructions and metagenomic data. The Microbiome Modeling Toolbox extends the functionality of the constraint-based reconstruction and analysis toolbox.Availability and implementation The Microbiome Modeling Toolbox and the tutorials at https://git.io/microbiomeModelingToolbox.
