Developing general principles of host–microorganism interactions necessitates a robust
understanding of the eco-evolutionary processes that structure microbiota. Phylosymbiosis …

Phylosymbiosis was recently formulated to support a hypothesis-driven framework for the
characterization of a new, cross-system trend in host-associated microbiomes. Defining …

We present the ggtreeExtra package for visualizing heterogeneous data with a phylogenetic
tree in a circular or rectangular layout (https://www. bioconductor. org/packages/ggtreeExtra) …

The host‐associated core microbiome was originally coined to refer to common groups of
microbes or genes that were likely to be particularly important for host biological function …

Animals in the wild are able to subsist on pathogen-infected and poisonous food and show
immunity to various diseases. These may be due to their microbiota, yet we have a poor …

Birds harbor complex gut bacterial communities that may sustain their ecologies and
facilitate their biological roles, distribution, and diversity. Research on gut microbiomes in …

Archaea are common constituents of the gut microbiome of humans, ruminants, and termites
but little is known about their diversity and abundance in other animals. Here, we analyse …

Every mammalian species harbours a gut microbiota, and variation in the gut microbiota
within mammalian species can have profound effects on host phenotypes. In this review, we …

Research on animal–microbiota interactions has become a central topic in biological
sciences because of its relevance to basic eco-evolutionary processes and applied …

Fish are the most diverse and widely distributed vertebrates, yet little is known about the
microbial ecology of fishes nor the biological and environmental factors that influence fish …
