High-Resolution Time-Series Analysis of the Gut Microbiota in Mice Using an Automated Fecal Collection System
Fecal samples were collected every hour for 2 weeks from individually housed specific-pathogen-free (SPF) mice using an automated fecal collection device.For metagenome-assembled genome (MAG) reconstruction, long-read metagenomic sequencing was conducted on PacBio HiFi libraries generated by pooling time-series fecal samples from each mouse.
