Ecophylogenetics Clarifies the Evolutionary Association between Mammals and Their Gut Microbiota

ABSTRACT Our knowledge of how the gut microbiome relates to mammalian evolution benefits from the identification of gut microbial taxa that are unexpectedly prevalent or unexpectedly conserved across mammals. Such taxa enable experimental determination of the traits needed for such microbes to succe...
