title: Metabarcoding of Gallotia galloti gut microbiome, 16SV34
design: This study investigates the gut microbiome of the Tenerife wall lizard (Gallotia galloti) using metabarcoding of the 16S rRNA gene. DNA was extracted from fecal samples, and the V3-V4 hypervariable region of the 16S rRNA gene was amplified using PCR. Sequencing was performed on the Illumina MiSeq platform with paired-end reads to obtain high-resolution taxonomic profiling of the microbial communities. This research aims to characterize the composition and diversity of the gut microbiota in G. galloti, contributing to our understanding of host-microbe interactions in insular reptile species.
