Abstract:The gut microbiomes of the host are large and complex communities, which
helps to maintain homeostasis, improves digestive efficiency, and
promotes the development of the immune system. The small mammals
distributed in Sichuan Province are the most popular species for
biodiversity research in Southwest China. However, the effects of
different diets on the structure and function of the gut microbial
community of these small mammals are poorly understood. In this study,
whole-metagenome shotgun sequencing has be… Show more
