Metagenomic analysis of gut microbiota composition and function in wild mice (Rattus flavipectus) infected with Enterocytozoon bieneusi
<i>E. bieneusi</i> infection significantly alters the gut virome in wild mice, affecting microbial composition and interactions. The infection appears to drive adaptive changes in microbial functions, especially in metabolic processes, suggesting a host response to infection-related stress.
