Diet and Genotype of an Aquatic Invertebrate Affect the Composition of Free-Living Microbial Communities

In spite of the growing interest in the role of the gut microbiome (GM) in host physiology and health, the mechanisms governing its assembly and its effects on the environment are poorly understood. In this article, we show that the host genotype and the GM of Daphnia influence the community structu...
