Abstract:Background: The mammal intestinal microbita involved in various physiological processes in host and play a key role in host environment adaption. However, for non-human primate(NHP), little is known about their gut microbial community in high-altitude extreme environment and much less to their adaption to high-altitude environment. In this study, we want to characterize gut microbial community of rhesus macaques from multiple high-altitude environment and by comparing it to low-altitude control group to reveal… Show more
