Evaluation of Gut Microbiota Stability and Flexibility as a Response to Seasonal Variation in the Wild François’ Langurs (Trachypithecus francoisi) in Limestone Forest [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 The coevolution between gut microbiota and the host markedly influences the digestive strategies of animals to cope with changes in food sources. We have explored the compositional structure and seasonal variation in the gut microbiota of François ...

Gut microbiota of provisioned and wild rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) living in a limestone forest in southwest Guangxi, China [PDF]
MicrobiologyOpen, 2020 The gut microbiota plays an important role in animal health and is strongly affected by the environment. Captivity and human source food have been shown to influence drastically the gut microbiota composition and function of wild animals.

A Forest Pool as a Habitat Island for Mites in a Limestone Forest in Southern Norway [PDF]
Diversity, 2021 Forest water bodies, e.g., pools, constitute ‘environmental islands’ within forests, with specific flora and fauna thus contributing considerably to the landscape biodiversity.

Feeding Postures and Substrate Use of François' Langurs (Trachypithecus francoisi) in the Limestone Forest of Southwest China. [PDF]
Animals (Basel)Simple Summary Adaptations to environments are crucial for wild animals to survive changing habitats. We study the feeding postures and forest strata use of François’ langurs to explore how these langurs behaviorally adapt to limestone forests.
