Incomplete Concordance Between Host Phylogeny and Gut Microbial Community in Tibetan Wetland Birds

Gut microbial communities of animals play key roles in host evolution, while the relationship between gut microbiota and host evolution in Tibetan birds remains unknown. Herein, we sequenced the gut microbiota of 67 wild birds of seven species dwelling in the Tibetan wetlands. We found an obvious sp...
