Comparative analysis reveals gut microbiome divergence across Mexican tetra morphotypes, highlighting the joint influence of host genetics and habitat.
The ecological and genetic changes that underlie the evolution of host-microbe interactions remain elusive, primarily due to challenges in disentangling the variables that alter microbiome composition. To understand the impact of host habitat, host genetics, and evolutionary history on microbial community structure, we examined gut microbiomes of river- and three cave-adapted morphotypes of the Mexican tetra,
