Convergence of gut microbiomes in myrmecophagous mammals
Molecular Ecology, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 1301-1317, March 2014., 2014 Abstract Mammals have diversified into many dietary niches. Specialized myrmecophagous (ant‐ and termite‐eating) placental mammals represent a textbook example of evolutionary convergence driven by extreme diet specialization. Armadillos, anteaters, aardvarks, pangolins and aardwolves thus provide a model system for understanding the potential role of ...
