Habitat fragmentation is associated with dietary shifts and microbiota variability in common vampire bats [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Host ecological factors and external environmental factors are known to influence the structure of gut microbial communities, but few studies have examined the impacts of environmental changes on microbiotas in free‐ranging animals. Rapid land‐use change
