Gut microbiota of the black-faced spoonbill (Platalea minor) from different regions in China
This BioProject investigates the gut microbial diversity of the endangered black-faced spoonbill (Platalea minor) based on 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. Fecal samples were collected from four geographically distinct regions in China (Shenzhen, Dongfang, Danzhou, and Xinying), representing different environmental conditions. The goal is to explore how regional variation affects microbial community composition, and to support conservation-related microbial research.
