Microbiomes in the insectivorous bat species <i>Mops condylurus</i> rapidly converge in captivity

2019-09-26

Abstract excerpt

Bats are well known reservoir hosts for RNA and DNA viruses. The use of captive bats in research has intensified over the past decade as researchers aim to examine the virus-reservoir host interface. In this study, we investigated the effects of captivity on the fecal bacterial microbiome of an insectivorous microbat, Mops condylurus , a bat species that roosts in close proximity to humans and has likely transmit...
