study of the bacterial community of the hoopoes nest to know its relationship with the volatiles of the nest and with the intensity of parasitism.

By experimental manipulation of the nest microbiota of hoopoes (Upupa epops) before reproduction started, we explore the hypothetical link between bacterial volatiles and...

Viral metagenomic analysis of different tissues of chickens

Migratory birds are considered as vectors of infectious diseases because of their potential for spreading pathogens over large distances. The primary goals of this study are to...

Characterise the fungal community of kakapo chick faeces and associated nest litter using ITS2 region amplicon sequencing.

A comprehensive assessment of fungal communities in various habitats from Antarctica: diversity, distribution, and potential pathogens

In this study we map microbial distributions within a small, natural watershed in order to examine source-sink dynamics of symbiotic microbes at the landscape scale, among...

Characterise the bacterial community of kakapo chick faeces and associated nest litter using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing.

Bacteria metabolize organic compounds of nest materials and debris from reproductive activity that accumulate in avian nests during the breeding season, and, thus, have been...

Knight_skin_biogeography - Comparison of skin samples from a rat (mammal), cyclostomid (fish), iguana (reptile), bull frog (amphibian) and a bird (pigeon) to determine if the...

16S amplicon sequencing datasets for the optimization of the BiotopeBac tool.

A BioBlitz is an event that focuses on finding and identifying as many species as possible in a specific area over a short period of time. In 2017, scientists, families,...
