Metabolic potentials of the gut microbes in Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba)

ABSTRACT Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) plays crucial roles in the Southern Ocean biological system, yet the ecological functions of their gut microbiota remain poorly understood. The study investigated the composition and diversity of the gut microbiota in E. superba using 16S rRNA gene sequen...
