Comparative Analysis of Gut Microbiome Community Structures in Different Populations of Asian Elephants in China and Their Correlation with Diet
This study reveals significant differences in the gut microbiota structure among different populations of Asian elephants and explores the impact of diet on the structure. The results provide foundational data for a deeper understanding of the gut microbiota structure of Asian elephants and offer important references for the scientific conservation and precise management strategies of this species.
