Growth-Associated Gut Microbiota Succession in Decapterus maruadsi: Increasing Dominance of Persistent Taxa
Gut microbiome development during fish growth involves not only taxonomic turnover but also changes in the persistence and ecological dominance of microbial members. Here, we characterized the gut microbiota of D. maruadsi across three successive growth-associated body-size groups: the early-growth group (BLEGC; 4.98–6...
