Fish represent a large part of the taxonomic diversity of vertebrates and are of high
commercial value. However, the factors influencing the gut microbiota composition of …

Gut microbiota typically occupy habitats with definable limits/borders that are comparable to
oceanic islands. The gut therefore can be regarded as an 'island'for the assembly of …

Considering the major involvement of gut microflora in the digestive function of various
macro-organisms, bacterial communities inhabiting fish guts may be the main actors of …

Microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract of animals play vital roles in food digestion,
homeostasis and immune response regulation. Globally, there are 33,700 fish species …

Gut microbiome is considered as a critical role in host digestion and metabolic homeostasis.
Nevertheless, the lack of knowledge concerning how the host-associated gut microbiome …

In aquatic animals, gut microbial communities shift with host development and living
environments. Understanding the mechanism by which the environment impacts the gut …

Background Our understanding of the gut microbiota of animals is largely based on studies
of mammals. To better understand the evolutionary basis of symbiotic relationships between …

Background While many studies have reported that the structure of the gut and skin
microbiota is driven by both species-specific and habitat-specific factors, the relative …

Studying the gut microbes of marine fishes is an important part of conservation as many fish
species are increasingly threatened by extinction. The gut microbiota of only a small fraction …

Teleost omnivorous fish that coexist partially sharing resources are likely to modify their gut
traits and microbiome as a feedback mechanism between ecological processes and …
