16S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing of intestinal microbiota in luciobarbus capito with cladophora and common-fed group
Through an experiment on the predation of Cladophora by Luciobarbus capito, this study evaluated the effects of Cladophora on physiological and biochemical parameters as well as gut microbiota in the fish. Common-feed and Cladophora were provided as the sole dietary sources. After 14 days of feeding, In terms of gut microbiota diversity, Cladophora significantly altered the microbial community structure and relative abundance of certain microorganisms.
