Maternal transmission of bacterial microbiota during embryonic development in a viviparous lizard

Maternal transmission of bacterial microbiota during embryonic development in a viviparous lizard

ABSTRACT The maternal transmission of microbiota during embryonic development of vertebrates is still poorly understood. Here, we used high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA bacterial genes to determine the bacterial communities in the gastrointestinal tract and amniotic environment, i.e., the a...
