Superspreaders have lower gut microbial alpha-diversity and distinct gut microbial composition in a natural rodent population
Abstract The microbiome is well known to drive variation in host states (e.g. behaviour, immunity) that would be expected to modulate the spread of infectious disease—but the role of microbiotal interactions in promoting superspreading is poorly understood. Superspreaders are individuals with a stro...
