Metabarcoding of Gallotia galloti gut microbiome, 16SV34
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.
