The avian gut microbiota: Diversity, influencing factors, and future directions
F Sun, J Chen, K Liu, M Tang, Y Yang - Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 - frontiersin.org
The gut microbiota is viewed as the “second genome” of animals, sharing intricate
relationships with their respective hosts. Because the gut microbial community and its …

Evolutionary signal in the gut microbiomes of 74 bird species from Equatorial Guinea
How the microbiome interacts with hosts across evolutionary time is poorly understood. Data
sets including many host species are required to conduct comparative analyses. Here, we …

Properties, genetics and innate immune function of the cuticle in egg-laying species
Cleidoic eggs possess very efficient and orchestrated systems to protect the embryo from
external microbes until hatch. The cuticle is a proteinaceous layer on the shell surface in …

Morphological and genetic factors shape the microbiome of a seabird species (Oceanodroma leucorhoa) more than environmental and social factors
Background The microbiome provides multiple benefits to animal hosts that can profoundly
impact health and behavior. Microbiomes are well-characterized in humans and other …
