Differential Ecological Specificity of Protist and Bacterial Microbiomes across a Set of Termite Species

The gut microbiome of lower termites comprises protists and bacteria that help these insects to digest cellulose and to thrive on wood. The composition of the termite gut microbiome correlates with phylogenetic distance of the animal host and host ecology (diet) in termites collected from their natu...
