Comparative Analysis of How the Fecal Microbiota of Green-Winged Saltator (<i>Saltator similis</i>) Diverge among Animals Living in Captivity and in Wild Habitats

Comparative Analysis of How the Fecal Microbiota of Green-Winged Saltator (<i>Saltator similis</i>) Diverge among Animals Living in Captivity and in Wild Habitats

The microbiota’s alteration is an adaptive mechanism observed in wild animals facing high selection pressure, especially in captive environments. The objective of this study is to compare and predict the potential impact of habitat on the fecal bacterial community of <i>Saltator similis</i&...
