Hidden Ecosystems of an Endangered Giant: Microbiomes of Leatherback Sea Turtles

ISME Host Microbe
Abstract The leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) is a migratory, globally endangered marine species whose associated microbiota remain understudied. Characterizing these communities may inform animal health and conservation. We hypothesized that different turtle body sites and nests host distinct microbial communities.
