DNA metabarcoding of gut microbiota reveals considerable taxonomic differences among wild individuals of the dung beetle Trypocopris pyrenaeus (Coleoptera: Geotrupidae)

DNA metabarcoding of gut microbiota reveals considerable taxonomic differences among wild individuals of the dung beetle Trypocopris pyrenaeus (Coleoptera: Geotrupidae)

The gut microbiota of dung beetles comprises bacteria, archaea, and fungi. Most studies have only considered the bacterial element and focused on differences between species reared in the lab. This study considered microorganisms from the gut of Trypocopris pyrenaeus and concentrated on differences...
