Compare the community composition and the function of the gut microbe of Japanese macaques in Yakushima, southern Japan.

Understanding how small mammals (SM) associate to environmental characteristics in olive groves is important to identify potential threats to agriculture and assess the overall...

provides a new understanding of intestinal damage caused by zinc deficiency and reveals the interaction between zinc and intestinal flora, providing potential therapeutic...

This project analyzed DNA extracted from stomach and colon of Japanese macaques (Macaca fuscata) living in evergreen forest of Yakushima Island using high-throughput sequencing...

LoopSeq sequencing data derived from amplicons of the full-length 16S rRNA in bacteria, the 18S-ITS region in fungi, and random amplified segments of baterial genomes.

New insights on the contribution of mesopelagic fish and cephalopods to the diet of rorquals (Balaenoptera spp) and sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) beyond their feeding...

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

Evidence suggests a relationship between the obesity phenotype and the gut microbiome. This study investigated the effect of bariatric surgery on changes to gut microbiota...

Study's goal was to sequence metagenomes from marine sediments with varying proximity to the wastewater effluent source at Davis station (Antarctica) in addition to nearby...

The project sought to conduct interpopulation comparisons of the gut microbiota for East Greenland (EG) and Southern Beaufort Sea (SB) polar bears. These two polar bear...

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

The faecal microbiome of the Loggerhead Turtle

Age is known to affect the gut microbiota in various animals however, this relationship is poorly understood in seabirds. We studied the temporal succession of gut microbiota in...
