Gut microbiota of insectivorous bats in Japan harbor Chlamydophila psittaci and Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli: host species and location shape community structure

2026-07-02

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Background The gut microbiota of bats is increasingly studied for its ecological and public health significance, yet factors shaping gut microbial communities, such as host species, environmental location, and ecological variation, remain poorly understood in insectivorous bats in Japan. We characterised the gut microbiota of three insectivorous bat species ( <italic>Miniopterus ful...
