Gut Microbiomes of Two Bamboo Locusts Reveal Divergent Metabolic Potentials
We compared the gut microbiota of two bamboo‐feeding locust pests, Ceracris kiangsu and Ceracris nigricornis, using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing for six geographic populations of C. kiangsu and publicly available C. nigricornis datasets. Both species were dominated by Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, but showed significant differences in community ...

Using DNA Metabarcoding and Citizen Science to Assess the Diet of Owned Domestic Cats
ABSTRACT Various methods have been attempted to quantify hunting and consumption of wild prey by domestic cats, but molecular analysis of their scat using DNA metabarcoding has rarely been attempted. In this study, we relied on owner‐collected scats (n = 32) from litterboxes and backyards to test whether this methodology could be used to detect ...
