Bacterial 16S rRNA sequences from the centipede Lithobius forficatus (Chilopoda, Lithobiomorpha)
This study used whole gene 16S rRNA sequencing to characterise the bacterial microbiomes of the forcipules, ultimate legs and gonads of the centipede Lithobius forficatus, as well as the soil from where the animals were collected. This was done to determine if the microbiomes were sample or location specific.
