Effects of Timing of Microbial Exposure on Microbiome Assembly and Amphibian Immune Development

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We used a novel amphibian gnotobiotic system to investigate how disruptions to the microbiome during critical developmental periods influence microbial assembly and the development of immunity. We found that antimicrobial treatments of embryos and subsequent introduction to microbes at different developmental stages altered microbiome assembly ...
