Early sexual dimorphism in the developing gut microbiome of northern elephant seals

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 29, Issue 11, Page 2109-2122, June 2020., 2020
Abstract The gut microbiome is an integral part of a species' ecology, but we know little about how host characteristics impact its development in wild populations. Here, we explored the role of such intrinsic factors in shaping the gut microbiome of northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris) during a critical developmental window of 6 weeks ...
